get data visual

Hi all,

 

I want to get some data when the user is using my power Bi-Project.

I mean for example: in my report, there is a slicer to filter the data in a specific period. In the same moment there is a card in my report using a measure, this measure needs to know how many quarters in the chosen time there ist to do some work.  

I would be glad for any help!

Regards,

In this scenario, I assume you use a date slicer to select period. If you want to count quarters in selected period, you need to add a Quarter column in your table first.

 

Quarter = YEAR('Calendar'[Date]) & "Q" & ROUNDDOWN((MONTH('Calendar'[Date])-1)/3+1,0)

Then add a measure the distinct count Quarter column based on selected dates.

 

 

Measure = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Calendar'[Quarter]),ALLSELECTED('Calendar'[Date]))
