    I've actually managed to fix this!

    Turns out I had a filter being applied via another slicer which was changing the date ranges and therefore not applying the assumed window.

Hi Anonymous ,

Very weird, using your formula I can return the correct result.

Measure = 
VAR x = 
CALCULATE(
    MIN(RawData[Date]),
    FILTER(
        RawData,
        RawData[Type] = "after"
    )
)
VAR y = x + [Years Value]*365
RETURN
CALCULATE(
    COUNT(RawData[Ref]),
    FILTER(
        RawData,
        [Date] >= x && [Date] <= y
    )
)

(Fact table)

(What IF parameter)

 

Could you provide more information about the problem you have met?

 

Best regards,
