Helper IIHow to calculate date
So I have such modeling. Four tables.
I need to create a measure/column : (Delivery Date - OC shipping date)= date to ship
My biggest question is if no show date in delivery date column then I will use actual delivery date, and do the same thing
(actual Delivery Date- OC shipping date)
My priority is first use DIMDELIVERY TABLE if empty then use DIMACTUALDELIVERY.
How do i write this function ?
Hi tyan ,
I created some data:
Here are the steps you can follow：
1. Create measure.
Actual Delivery date_measure = CALCULATE(MAX('Dim Actual Delivery'[Actual Delivery date]),FILTER(ALL('Dim Actual Delivery'),'Dim Actual Delivery'[Group]=MAX('Fact Sales Table'[Group])))Delivery date_measure = CALCULATE(MAX('DimDelivery'[Delivery date]),FILTER(ALL('DimDelivery'),'DimDelivery'[Group]=MAX('Fact Sales Table'[Group])))datediff = IF( [Delivery date_measure]=BLANK(), DATEDIFF( MAX('Fact Sales Table'[OC Shipping date]),[Actual Delivery date_measure],DAY), DATEDIFF( MAX('Fact Sales Table'[OC Shipping date]),[Delivery date_measure],DAY))2. Result:
