IF statement for date

Hi Expert

 

I need to create a new column using IF statement to calculate my finance year.

 

E.g: if date falls between April 2019 to March 2020 = FY 20

if date falls between April 2018 to March 2019 = FY 19

 

Can anyone help me with this statement?

Hi, @Yuiitsu 

 

Based on your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario.

Table:

 

Table = CALENDAR(DATE(2018,1,1),DATE(2020,12,31))

 

 

You may create a calculated column as below.

 

finance year = 
var _date = 'Table'[Date]
var _month = MONTH(_date)
var _year = YEAR(_date)

return
IF(
    _month>=4&&_month<=12,
    CONCATENATE("FY",VALUE(FORMAT(_date,"YY"))+1),
    IF(
        _month<=3&&_month>=1,
        CONCATENATE("FY",VALUE(FORMAT(_date,"YY"))+0)
    )
)

Create an end of year and use

 

FY = "FY" & format(endofyear([date],"3/31"),"YY")

 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/endofyear-function-dax

 

You also have startofyear. That also takes the end date as parameter, if needed
