Using EOMONTH to find quarterly sum
Hello Community, I have an odd situation where I have to use snapshot data to get particular results. In this case, reconciled information from our accounting system. It is reported out as "...

Hi Anonymous ,
Believe that you can do two things:
- Make a measure for quarter values (DAX)
- Make a column with the daily figures (M Language)
Option 1.
- Create the following columns on your calendar table:
Quarter = "Q"&QUARTER([Date] -5) End_of_month = EOMONTH([Date]-5;0) //Forcing in both column to pick up th date from 5 days earlier as you have in the monthly calculation.- Add the measure below for the Quartely calculation:
Quarter Reconciled Measure = SUMX ( SUMMARIZE ( Dates; Dates[End_of_month]; "@Date_Selection"; MAX ( Dates[Date] ) ); CALCULATE ( SUM ( FLU_Snapshots[Actual_Value] ); FILTER ( ALL ( FLU_Snapshots[As of date] ); FLU_Snapshots[As of date] = MAX ( [@Date_Selection] ) ) ) )Option 2.
You also may make some query adaptations to get the daily figures:
- Add a step after the last step of your query
- Rigth click the last step on the query settings and select Insert Step after
- Rename this step for example to ====== (this will give you the notion of where you started to add new changes)
- Add a custom column with the following code:
PreviousDay =[As of date] - #duration(1,0,0,0)- Remove the As of Date column
- Insert a Merge Querie
- Do a Merger with the same querie
- Select all columns that are unique identifiers for each row
- On my example only have two (Description and As of Date)
- Do not select the value or any other columns that change within the day otherwise you will get blank values
- Select the left Join
- On the formula bar you will have:
- Table.NestedJoin(#"Step Name", {"Description", "As of date"}, #"Step Name", {"Description", "PreviousDay"}, "Removed Columns", JoinKind.LeftOuter)
- Replace the first Step Name (information highligted above) by the name of the step before the custom step ( ======)
- Expand the Actuals value from New column
- Add a new custom column:
[Actual_Value]-[Removed Columns.Actual_Value]- Remove the column that you expanded before in my case [Removed Columns.Actual_Value]
Now you have daily values for all your KPI not sure if they are of any help but it's one way of getting daily values.

Select the cell that contains month 1 data and click OK. ...
The SUM formulas will be created in the Q1 cell and the four cells to the right of it.
