Measure - Filter with relative date

Hi all,


I'm a bit stuck (and still learning BI) but I have a column 'Items' that includes a description of 'Highest'.  I have been able to create a measure that gives me a total of 'Highest' as per below.

KeyCount for High Priority = CALCULATE(  [KeyCount], 'Items'[Priority] = "Highest")
 
I am now trying to add a measure on the same column but provide me with a total of 'Highest' but only where the 'Created' date is within the past 6 months.

I can do it using the visuals on the filter but stuck on the measure. 

Any guidance appreciated.

  • NiugeS , Try a measure like

     


    KeyCount for High Priority = CALCULATE( [KeyCount], filter('Items', 'Items'[Priority] = "Highest" && 'Items'[created Date] >= eomonth(today(),-7) + 1 && 'Items'[created Date] <=today()))

  • amitchandak Thank you!  That worked.  Can I ask why eomonth(today(),-7)+1 and not simply eomonth(today(),-6)?
