Hi all,
I am about to lose my head to solve the following issue. It would be easy for members who usually use Power Query, but not for me, as i have done a little work with it (I have always used DAX).
I'm facing an issue related to data where i only have the first two columns ["Requirements", "Values"] of the following dataset as an example, and my target is to add a refresh date or some other hack that whenever my data got a refresh date is added here which could connect to Calendar table. Later, i will create a line chart that shows the percentage of "Requirements" linked to the "Values". Each time the report gets updated, the line chart shows a percentage trend.
Requirements | Values | Date Refresh |
SysReq | 48 | 3/1/2024 |
Not SysReq | 8 | 3/1/2024 |
SysReq | 48 | 3/2/2024 |
Not SysReq | 8 | 3/2/2024 |
SysReq | 50 | 3/3/2024 |
Not SysReq | 6 | 3/3/2024 |
SysReq | 51 | 3/4/2024 |
Not SysReq | 5 | 3/4/2024 |
SysReq | 51 | 3/4/2024 |
Not SysReq | 5 | 3/4/2024 |
SysReq | 51 | 3/5/2024 |
Not SysReq | 5 | 3/5/2024 |
SysReq | 51 | 3/6/2024 |
Not SysReq | 5 | 3/6/2024 |
SysReq | 50 | 3/7/2024 |
Not SysReq | 6 | 3/7/2024 |
SysReq | 51 | 3/8/2024 |
Not SysReq | 5 | 3/8/2024 |
SysReq | 51 | 3/9/2024 |
Not SysReq | 5 | 3/9/2024 |
SysReq | 52 | 3/10/2024 |
Not SysReq | 4 | 3/10/2024 |
SysReq | 54 | New refresh date |
Not SysReq | 2 | New refresh date |
This is the end goal i want to achieve.
Can you please guide me if there is any hack/way around to achieve this goal?

you are partially correct, i want to fetch date as a separate column on the basis of each refresh which is not defined/available in my dataset. So, each time data got refresh, date will add to my dataset such as indexing and later i will use these dates to create line chart trends.
Maybe any other hack/solution with power query OR how to accomplish with the backend?
Thanks.
correct me if my understanding is wrong .
you want to create a data history base on the refresh date .
if that is so,
the power query is an etl tool .this can't be done in power query , neither in dax ( as far as i know ) .
this should be done in the backend.
hope this makes sense
If my answer helped sort things out for you, i would appreciate a thumbs up 👍 and mark it as the solution ✅
It makes a difference and might help someone else too. Thanks for spreading the good vibes! 🤠
