Hello. I would like to modify the following code snippet to refer to (2) cells in an Excel workbook (a cell for a start date and a cell for an end date)
Solved! Go to Solution.
You have loaded the data to power bi model right ? and if you are on live connection like direct mode then i think it will not load but only query it so try switching to import
another way is you could use what if parameter instead of the parameter table itslef i guess
Hi Could you try this
VAR __StartDate =
CALCULATE(
MAX('ParameterTable'[ParameterValue]),
'ParameterTable'[ParameterName] = "StartDate"
)
VAR __EndDate =
CALCULATE(
MAX('ParameterTable'[ParameterValue]),
'ParameterTable'[ParameterName] = "EndDate"
)
VAR __DS0FilterTable5 =
FILTER(
KEEPFILTERS(VALUES('Date Dim'[FiscalBaseDate])),
AND(
'Date Dim'[FiscalBaseDate] >= __StartDate,
'Date Dim'[FiscalBaseDate] < __EndDate
)
)
If the post helped please give a kudos and accept this as a solution
Thanks in advance
Hi - probably a dumb question, but where are you getting "Parameter Table" from?
Sorry didnt share that as you need to create a table for that Prameter Table for start date and end date which will then dynamically filter without hardcoding it into DAX
Ah ok...well, I tried adding your code and made a parameter table in the Excel workbook that contains the live connection data, but it just keeps telling me it cannot find the parameter table?
