SUM countrows measure

I have a measure that grabs the count of appointments each day in a COUNTROWS measure,

 

Count Appointments = 
COUNTROWS(FILTER('Appointment Times with date','Appointment Times with date'[Working Hours]= "Yes"))

 

However I'd trying to comeup with a way to count this measure (e.g. 33 appointments a day) between two dates e.g. 09/09/2021 and 16/09/2021.

 

Thanks

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    So, it sounds like you just want to filter your data for specific dates, right?

    In that case, you just need to put your measure into a visual with dates in it, then put your dates into a slicer on the page and set the slicer to a 'Between' type, like this:

    Try this measure:

    _appointmentsPerDay =
    VAR __noofDays =
    DATEDIFF([Scalar Start Date], [Scalar End Date], DAY)
    RETURN
    DIVIDE([Count Appointments], __noofDays, 0)

     

    You will need a way to populate the scalar date values, whether this is through measures or slicer selections etc. is up to you, but you'll need to find a way to get those in there.

      Thanks for this. It's along the lines of what I need but rather than divide the no of days by appointment .

       

      Is it possible to have something like:

       

      _appointmentsPerDay =
      VAR __noofDays =
      DATEDIFF("09/09/2021", "16/09/2021", DAY)
      RETURN
      SUM([Count Appointments] over these dates?
       
      e.g. 33 appointments per day over 7 days = 231 apps.
       
      thanks again!
