Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You can use following DAX expressions:

Year part = YEAR(ClothingSales[Date])
Month part = FORMAT(ClothingSales[Date], "MMMM")
Day part = FORMAT(ClothingSales[Date], "dddd")
 
Replace ClothingSales[Date] in above dax expressions with your date column name.
 
Thanks,

Use this formula for the month of the year in name:
UPPER(FORMAT((Calendar[Date]),"MMMM"))
For the month number use the MONTH function

Hey, this works great. What would you do with the month to get like January, instead of 1?
