IF statement with Dates in a measure
Hey there,
I'd like to create a measure that will calculate something for me if it match some given criteria. For instance, in the following image I wanna create a measure that will count the number of rows if the filtered date is over 16/03/2022. However, when I do that DAX do not let me finish the formula.
Just to make something clear, creating a calculated column is not an option because I need it to be dynamic.
What I wanna create whit this formula? If the date is on or after 16/03/2022, I'll not count some employees and to do so, I have created a measure with
var Excluded CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Base), FILTER(Base, Base[assignee] <> "Someone"))
return IF(Calendario[Data] > 16/03/2022, Excluded, CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Base)))
Thanks in advance!
Hi, Anonymous
Usually we use date() function when we use date.
measure = IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( Calendario[Data] ) > DATE ( 2022, 3, 16 ), Excluded, CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( Base ) ) )If your problem has been solved, you can mark the answer as solution to close the thread.

Anonymous , You can use a date slicer and filter date table from column or connected column. You can use before slicer
hard coded date will be like
var Excluded CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Base), FILTER(Base, Base[assignee] <> "Someone"))
return IF(Calendario[Data] > Date(2022,03,16) , Excluded, CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Base)))Thanks for the reply.
The problem is that when I type IF(Calendario[Data] >, the Bi underline the function showing that it has an
error in the formula. What did you meant with the first part of your reply? You can use a date slicer and filter date table from column or connected column. You can use before slicer. I didn't get that.
johnt75You need to wrap Calendario[Data] inside a SELECTEDVALUE function.
