    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    First create a column in query 2:

     

    next period = 
var _next= CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[Date]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Date]>EARLIER('Table'[Date])&&'Table'[Product]=EARLIER('Table'[Product])))
Return
IF(_next=BLANK(),DATE(YEAR(MAX('Table'[Date])),12,31),_next)

     

    Then create a measure as below:

     

    _cost = 
CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[Price]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Date]<=MAX('Query 1'[Date])&&'Table'[next period]>=MAX('Query 1'[Date])&&'Table'[Product]=MAX('Query 1'[Product])))

     

     And you will find that the price has been added to query 1 according to period setting.

     

    For the related .pbix file,pls see attached.

     

    Best Regards,
    Kelly

hi amitchandak

thanks for quick reply, i used your method, but it partially worked... the difficulty is to have a changing price between period, if i use your method, on my new column i only have the data i need at one date vs all date (in order to calculate turnover etc).
