I have a table with 3 years of Data and am writing a dax to get the Current month but somehow it's looking at the past current month as well. What's wrong?
= if Date.MonthName( DateTime.LocalNow() ) = Date.MonthName([Date]) then "Current Month" else Date.MonthName([Date])
How can I exclude past year/past month
Solved! Go to Solution.
You can adapt your code like this
= if Date.MonthName( DateTime.LocalNow() ) = Date.MonthName([Date]) and Date.Year( DateTime.LocalNow() ) = Date.Year([Date]) then "Current Month" else Date.MonthName([Date])
