Hi Teams

I have facing a problem.

We want if the date is after 16 then it shows the previous month data,

when the data is before 15 then it shows the previous to previous months data.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Add this as a custom step in your M query:

 

Table.SelectRows(
    previousStep, each
    let
        Date.Today = Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow())
    in
    if Date.Day(Date.Today) >= 16
    then
        Date.Month([yourDate]) = Date.Month(Date.AddMonths(Date.Today, -1))
        and Date.Year([yourDate]) = Date.Year(Date.AddMonths(Date.Today, -1))
    else
        Date.Month([yourDate]) = Date.Month(Date.AddMonths(Date.Today, -2))
        and Date.Year([yourDate]) = Date.Year(Date.AddMonths(Date.Today, -2))
)
