Hi

 

The code for GetConsolidatedSQLData is below.

 

I want to leave this code alone if I can as it is used by several queries some of which do not require a date range filter.

 

How Can I do this ?

Thank You

let
Source = (sqlstmt as text) => let

AccData1= GetSQLData(sqlstmt,"NLD"),
AccData1c = Table.AddColumn(AccredoData1,"CompanyCode", each "NLD"),

AccData2= GetSQLData(sqlstmt,"AKL"),
AccData2c = Table.AddColumn(AccredoData2,"CompanyCode", each "AKL"),


AccData = Table.Combine({
AccData1c
,AccData2c

})
in
AccredoData
in
Source

in the SQL you have hardcoded single date, so I assume you need to change the SQL WHERE condition. What is the definition of the GetConsolidatedSQLData measure? It can have some additional logic regarding the date too
