Mark Date Table after everything
- 1 year ago
Hi Jmrc16, I believe you covered everything however I have few check points.
- Verify all time intelligence functions specially SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR DAX
- Review model relationships (1:* with Date)
- Remove legacy auto date tables if you have
- Format & optimize calendar columns
- Add hierarchies & sort orders
Thanks,

Hi Jmrc16
Marking dimCalendar as a proper Date Table and disabling the auto date/time option that’s essential for a stable time intelligence setup.
To make sure everything runs smoothly going forward, here are a few key checks:
-
Ensure your date table has a complete, continuous range without gaps (no missing dates).
-
Check that all time intelligence measures like SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR are using this custom table it's more sensitive to gaps or incorrect setup than others.
-
Verify there's a proper 1-to-many relationship from the date table to all fact tables.
-
Remove any auto-generated hierarchies still used in visuals and replace with your own.
-
Use Sort by Column (e.g., Month Name by Month Number) to keep visual order correct.
-
Format your calendar columns (like Month, Quarter) if needed for consistency.
