Using Previous Quarter

[MarioCadena]

I am using the following formula but I got blank as a result.

# Quote Previous Quarter = calculate(COUNT('Quote Request Tracker WA'[Unique Identifier]),PREVIOUSQUARTER('Quote Request Tracker WA'[QR Received.date].[Date]))  

When using bar chart adding [QR Received.date] on the axis I get the expected value, but I need a card.

Hi @MarioCadena ,

Dont use .date,try the measure as below:

# Quote Previous Quarter = calculate(COUNT('Quote Request Tracker WA'[Unique Identifier]),PREVIOUSQUARTER('Quote Request Tracker WA'[QR Received.date]))

@MarioCadena , Make sure You have date table marked as a Date. Also do not use ".Date" unless you have a timestamp in date.

example measures

Last QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER)))

Last complete QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD( ENDOFQUARTER(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER))))
Last to last QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-2,QUARTER)))
Next QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],1,QUARTER)))
Last year same QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year)))
Last year same QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(ENDOFQUARTER(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))))
trailing QTR = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER))
trailing  4 QTR = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-4,QUARTER))

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

Hi,

For all time intelligence functions need continuous dates . Hope you are using the date column to have continuous dates if not please add date table and try.

Appreciate a Kudos! 🙂
