Hey there,
I have a calculation created by datesbetween. I used Today()-7 function for the start and Today() for end date. BUt now I want to change it with a dynamic date which comes from my date slicer. Can anyone help me on this please?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Add the variable in a measure to see whether it returns the correct date
e.g.
Measure MIN_DATE = CALCULATE(MIN('Calendar'[Date]),ALLSELECTED('Calendar'[Date]))
Hi,
Replace today()-7 with min(calendar[date]) and today() with max(calendar[date]). Ensure that the Date slicer is built from the Calendar Table.
Hello @Kira_Net
Considering you have a Calendar table, you need to write 2 measures or variables and call these measures in datesbetween function.
Measure =
var _min_date = CALCULATE(MIN('Calendar'[Date]),ALLSELECTED('Calendar'[Date]))
var _max_date = CALCULATE(MAX('Calendar'[Date]),ALLSELECTED('Calendar'[Date]))
RETURN
I have similar approach for my problem statement to count no. of rows between two dates
but with this solution, its showing me the count of all rows.
Hey @themistoklis Thank you. I used the variable for the start and end date but it still showing me blank on my score card. the calculation works fine when I use today() and today ()-7 for start and end date but it only gives me the last week result. I wanted to create the flexeblity for users to filter out date using slicer.
Add the variable in a measure to see whether it returns the correct date
e.g.
Measure MIN_DATE = CALCULATE(MIN('Calendar'[Date]),ALLSELECTED('Calendar'[Date]))
Create a detached calendar (list of dates).
Drad calender to a slicer with a slicer bar (with min and max range)
Create dax measure ....
VAR mindate = MIN(calandar(date))
VAR maxdate = MIN(calandar(date))
RETURN
DATEDIFF(mindate , maxdate , DAY )
I am not sure if this is exactly what you need, but I hope you can change the value as required.
