Calculating P12M data but excluding blank months
- 7 years ago
Hi joyceleeyw ,
One sample for your reference, please check the following steps as below.
1. Create a calculated column in the fact table.
YM = FORMAT('Table'[date],"yyyymmmm")2. After that, we can create measures as below to get P12 or P6 average.
average p12M = VAR A = MAX ( 'Table'[date] ) VAR p12 = EDATE ( A, -12 ) RETURN DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[value] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date] >= p12 && 'Table'[date] <= A ) ), CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[YM] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date] >= p12 && 'Table'[date] <= A ) ) )average p6M = VAR A = MAX ( 'Table'[date] ) VAR p12 = EDATE ( A, -6 ) RETURN DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[value] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date] >= p12 && 'Table'[date] <= A ) ), CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[YM] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date] >= p12 && 'Table'[date] <= A ) ) )For more details, please check the pbix as attached.

Can you include more period? i.e. from jan 17 to jan 19. the denominator has to still be 9 for a P12M average

I need the denominator to only consider the P12M period when doing the SUMX
i thought of a measure like this. however, i think there's an error... are you able to help resolve the problem with my formula?
Share P12M = CALCULATE(SUM(LD_PBI[VALUE % SHARE]),DATESINPERIOD(LD_PBI[Date],LASTDATE(LD_PBI[Date]),-12,MONTH))/SUMX (LD_PBI, IF(DATESINPERIOD(LD_PBI[Date],LASTDATE(LD_PBI[Date]),-12,MONTH) && LD_PBI[Value % Share]>0,1)) - Nathaniel_C7 years ago

As this is really a new issue, you would do better by posting it on the forum. Good Luck!
