I need some DAX help as I am just learning it. I have a Date table caled "Date" and a table called Fact_Vol which has values aggregated like this from the following SQL
SELECT
DateKey,
SUM(NET_REV) AS TotalRev
FROM dbo.Fact_Vol
WHERE DateKey >= 20191001
GROUP BY DateKey
DateKey TotalRev
20191001 3594818971.10521
20191101 3257245599.0963
20191201 3411774368.68592
20200101 3010738311.89645
20200201 0
20200301 0
20200401 0
etc
I would like to find the last non-zero revenue value, get the Date for that and give me the YTD value. In this example the last value for Total Revenue is for Jan 2020 so I would like the measure to give that value. When Feb is populated I would like it to be the Revenue for Jan+Feb, etc.
I think I am close - I can isolate the standalone Date using this DAX. Just need to know how to get YTD from this date
Solved! Go to Solution.
Amit's solution did get me thinking of a modification however. This modified solution seems to work
NetRevenueYTD =
VAR MAXDATE =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Date' ),
'Date'[Date] <= MAX ( 'Date'[Date] )
&& 'Fact_MACO'[Total Net Revenue] <> 0
)
)
RETURN
CALCULATE (
SUM ( Fact_MACO[Net Revenue] ),
FILTER ( 'Date', 'Date'[Date] >= MAXDATE )
)
Hi,
You may download my PBI file from here.
Hope this helps.
Thanks...I should say that I need it to be dynamic. I cant have hardcoded values in the calc. I want it to automatically work when Feb values get loaded. Otherwise I would have to go into the calc and change it each month
