Working with 2 time dimensions
So I have two seperate quality measures I track from week to week.
Quality Measure 1 - Weekly Quality is measured Sunday - Saturday
Quality Measure 2 - Weekly Quality is measured Thursday - Wednesday
I have a data dimension table with a week end date column with the end date being each Sunday
My question is 1) How can I calculate both of these measures at the same time? 2) How can I display both of these on a visualization with the Weed End Date as the access?
Hi bwelsh
One idea is to have a single date table (with one row per date), but have a column for each Week ending
Something like this calculated table :
Dates = ADDCOLUMNS( CALENDAR(DATE(2016,1,1) , TODAY()) , "Weekday Name" , FORMAT([Date],"DDDD") , "Week Ending Saturday" , [Date] + (7-WEEKDAY([Date])) , "Week Ending Wednesday" , VAR X = 7-MOD(WEEKDAY([Date])+3,7)RETURN [DATE] + IF(X=7,0,X) )Then just connect the Date column to your fact table and use the Week Ending columns on your Axis

This is what I was thinking, thanks for the confirmation!
