How to calculate a season column?

Hello,

 

I would like to calculate a column in a query that reflects the season according to the date.
Each season starts on September 1 and ends on August 31.

The column should look like the following:

 

TIMESEASON
01/10/201212-13
06/06/201413-14
10/03/201615-16

 

Thank you very much and best regards.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

You could use below DAX to create a calculated column.

Season =
IF (
    'Time-Season'[TIME].[MonthNo] >= 9
        && 'Time-Season'[TIME].[MonthNo] <= 12,
    'Time-Season'[TIME].[Year] & "-"
        & 'Time-Season'[TIME].[Year] + 1,
    'Time-Season'[TIME].[Year] - 1
        & "-"
        & 'Time-Season'[TIME].[Year]
)

If there was another column with an item and each item had a different season, how would you add that in to the DAX equation? For example: Activity Date Season Surfing 1/6/2019 2018-2019 Biking 3/7/2017 2017-2018 Sailing 8/27/2018 2018 Surfing 7/6/2018 2018-2019 Biking 9/1/2017 2017-2018 Sailing 10/4/2019 2019 And the seasons for each is: Surfing 4/1-3/31 Biking 7/1-6/30 Sailing 1/1-12/31

My previous post was unformatted. f there was another column with an item and each item had a different season, how would you add that in to the DAX equation? For example:

ActivityDateSeason
Surfing1/6/20192018-2019
Biking3/7/20172017-2018
Sailing8/27/20182018
Surfing7/6/20182018-2019
Biking9/1/20172017-2018
Sailing10/4/20192019

 

And the seasons for each is: Surfing 4/1-3/31 Biking 7/1-6/30 Sailing 1/1-12/31

Hello Yuliana,

 

Great!!! I have tried it and it works perfectly. Later I used the following formula to get the final result that I want:

 

Temporada =

                      MID(

                               'Time-Season'[Season];3;2

)

                      &"-"&

                      MID(

                               'Time-Season'[Season];8;2

)

 

Thank you very much and best regards.
