Hi Guys,
can someone help me with getting sum of value of parallel period while using date filter?.
I tried to use the #parallel_period function but I think the Date filttering influnce it.
current table:
I would like to add lParallel_Period_total (last year) column to my matrix.
Solved! Go to Solution.
You could use a calculated measure like this:
Parallel Period = VAR MinDate = MIN ( Date[Column] ) VAR StartDate = DATE ( YEAR ( MinDate ) - 1, MONTH ( MinDate ), DAY ( MinDate ) ) VAR MaxDate = MAX ( Date[Column] ) VAR EndDate = DATE ( YEAR ( MaxDate ) - 1, MONTH ( MaxDate ), DAY ( MaxDate ) ) RETURN CALCULATE ( [Measure], FILTER ( ALL ( DateColumn/Table ), Date[Column] >= StartDate && Date[Column] <= EndDate ) )
