Previous working day Total
I am trying to get a total for the previous working day total in my model
My data is structured as below
| PO No | Purch Date | Quantity |
| 100008 | 30-Sep-21 | 40 |
| 100010 | 1-Oct-21 | 15 |
| 100011 | 4-Oct-21 | 20 |
| 100100 | 15-Oct-21 | 20 |
| 100104 | 15-Oct-21 | 50 |
| 100101 | 18-Oct-21 | 125 |
| 100103 | 18-Oct-21 | 25 |
The total for previous day should consider that
1. if it is first day of month, previous Qty should show the total as the same as the current Qty
2. For Monday, previous working day should be showing Friday qty
Expected result is
| Purch Date | Total Qty | Previous qty |
| 30-Sep-21 | 40 | 0 |
| 1-Oct-21 | 15 | 15 |
| 4-Oct-21 | 20 | 15 |
| 15-Oct-21 | 70 | 0 |
| 18-Oct-21 | 150 | 70 |
Tried using the measure

Hi Anonymous ,
I updated your sample pbix file(see attachment), please check whether that is what you want.
Previous Work Day Qty = VAR _curdate = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Purch Fact'[Purch Date] ) VAR _preworkdate = CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] ), FILTER ( ALL ( 'Calendar' ), 'Calendar'[Date] < _curdate && WEEKDAY ( 'Calendar'[Date], 2 ) <= 5 ) ) RETURN IF ( DAY ( _curdate ) = 1, [Total Qty], SUMX ( FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Purch Fact' ), 'Purch Fact'[Purch Date] = _preworkdate ), [Total Qty] ) ) + 0Best Regards

Hi,
Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.
I created a calculated column in your calendar table in order to help define weekdays.
Previous Work Day Qty =VAR currentdate =MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )VAR previousworkingdate =MAXX (FILTER (ALL ( 'Calendar' ),'Calendar'[Date] < currentdate&& NOT ( 'Calendar'[Weekdayname CC] IN { "Saturday", "Sunday" } )),'Calendar'[Date])RETURNIF (HASONEVALUE ( 'Calendar'[Date] ),IF (NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Total Qty] ) ),SWITCH (TRUE (),SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) = STARTOFMONTH ( 'Calendar'[Date] ), [Total Qty],CALCULATE ( [Total Qty], 'Calendar'[Date] = previousworkingdate )) + 0))- AnonymousNot applicable
Thanks Jihwan_Kim
I can see it working in that model.
Trying to understand how this is working. When i try to bring this into my model, my total is showing up as 0, eventhough there is value. WIll you be able to explain that expression in the return parameter please.
Also, is that HASONEVALUE being false returning that 0 for my expression. Bit confused with it.

Hi,
Thank you for your message.
Sorry to say that it is quite difficult to fully understand your question without seeing the model and visualization.
I think you already shared the link of your model, but if it is different now, could you please let me know again the link or your model?

Anonymous , You can try like these examples
This Day = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]=max('Date'[Date])))
Last Day = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]=max('Date'[Date])-1))
Last Day = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), previousday('Date'[Date]))Day Intelligence - Last day, last non continous day
