How to pass a dynamic parameter to Power Query SQL code

I would like to define a dynamic parameter which I can use in the SQL query to filter a specific date.

I created this query which is generating the correct number I want to use dynamically every day, but cannot use it in the SQL statement.

 

Any suggestions welcome please.

@BLB,

 

Try concatenating the parameter in the SQL statement:

 

...SYSDATE + '" & OffsetForLastTuesday & "' and SKULOC...

Thanks for the suggestion but now I am getting this error.

@BLB,

 

Try adding the single quotes in my example. Also, the plus sign after SYSDATE in your original query is missing.

I tried all combinations, with ', ", &, on their own and in all combinations an none of them works for me.

@BLB,

 

Try wrapping the parameter in Text.From. I think the parameter needs to be text in order to concatenate it with text.
