Textfield for several pages with variable part

I have several different reports in Power BI that I create on a quarterly basis. I created the titles of most of the pages with a text field. However, I have to manually change each new quarter number. In the following year also the year. Is there a possibility to change the year and quarter in this text field once across all pages?

 

Thanks!

    Hi nuovo2 

    I am not sure what your text field looks like , because you did not provide relevant data .

    If you want to change the quarterly number at one time ,maybe you can create a measure like this :

    Qty = INT(FORMAT(TODAY(),"q"))

    The return value is the number for the quarterly of the current date .

    The effect is as shown :

    Then you can combine this number and text to form a new mark .
