Basically what i need is if "Today" is Tuesday through Friday i just want to populate the previous date. Ex. run on 5/10/23 will populate 5/9/2023
But if its "Monday" i want to populate Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Ex. run on 5/8/2023 i want to populate 5/7/2023, 5/6/2023 and 5/5/2023
The only thing i can find is excluding weekends, I need to include them.
The last couple steps are just a "Check" column that i match back up to the main table that has activties and filter down to where there is a "Check"
let
Date = DateTime.LocalNow(),
MinusOneDayMondayMinus3Days = if Date.DayOfWeek(Date,0)= 1 then Date.AddDays(Date,-3) else Date.AddDays(Date,-1),
#"Converted to Table" = #table(1, {{MinusOneDayMondayMinus3Days}}),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Converted to Table",{{"Column1", type date}}),
#"Added Conditional Column" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Check", each if [Column1] <> null then 1 else null)
in
#"Added Conditional Column"
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @modxplus ,
Try adding a new custom column to your calendar table like this:
let Date.Today = Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) in
if
(
Date.DayOfWeek(Date.Today, 1) = 0
and [date] >= Date.AddDays(Date.Today, -3)
and [date] <= Date.AddDays(Date.Today, -1)
)
or [date] = Date.AddDays(Date.Today, -1)
then "Prev Period"
else null
You can then filter your visual/page/report on [NewColumn] = "Prev Period".
Full example query:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Vc65DYAwFAXBXhwj+b815qjFov82IGTDyWatVuk1O8Voz/YRc5i7Oc3DPM3LvMWU6VW8ilfxKl7Fq3gVr+IVXuEVXuEVXuEVXuEVXuHV8Gr8Vs8L", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [date = _t]),
chgTypes = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"date", type date}}),
#"Added Custom" =
Table.AddColumn(
chgTypes,
"filterPrevPeriod",
each let Date.Today = Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) in
if
(
Date.DayOfWeek(Date.Today, 1) = 0
and [date] >= Date.AddDays(Date.Today, -3)
and [date] <= Date.AddDays(Date.Today, -1)
)
or [date] = Date.AddDays(Date.Today, -1)
then "Prev Period"
else null
)
in
#"Added Custom"
You can change Date.DayOfWeek(Date.Today, 1) to Date.DayOfWeek(Date.Today, Day.Wednesday) to check that it works for the last three days at the end of a weekend too.

Custom column worked great. Hadnt thought about using that. Thanks for your help!
