Context issue when displaying prior year total that is based on date and category
My goal is to create a table that shows total applicants by action status for both selected and prior periods using the status that they had as of a selected date AND admission term. In other words, I want to count the students under the status for the row that is the the max effective dated row that is less than or equal to the selected date. I was able to do it for the selected values, but I'm having trouble showing the prior year in the same visual. My data set is a list of student applications and their statuses (sample below). Each student has multiple rows of data that are effective dated but also have a sequence number in case 2 transactions happen on the same day. What works: I have a measure that correctly calculates the number of applicants in each status as of the Admit Term and Date selected. I have also created a second measure based on this to calculate the prior year by finding that from the selected values (below). This measure appears to return the correct value when I EVALUATE it in DAX Query. If I return the variables as the output for the measure, they select the correct values. For example, if I select Fall 2024 and return _lastTerm, the measure returns Fall 2023. Not Working: When I place both these measures in a visual together, the prior year shows up blank. I’m sure that this is a context issue, but can’t figure out how to fix this. Any help will be appreciated. Desired output is to show the corresponding counts for selected and prior Term/Date combination. Measure (note: current year uses same measure but without the "last" variables) Applicant Status Prior Year = var _selectedDate = DATEVALUE(MAX('DimDate'[CalendarDate])) //get slicer value for effective date var _selectedTerm = SELECTEDVALUE('Application data'[AdmitTermCode]) //get slicer value for Admit Term var _selectedTermSeason = SELECTEDVALUE('Application data'[TermSeason]) //get associated Term Season var _lastyear = //calculate same day last year CALCULATE( MAX('DimDate'[CalendarDate]), SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('DimDate'[CalendarDate])) var _lastTerm = CALCULATE(MAX('DimTerm'[TermCode]) //get term code from last year , ALL('DimTerm') , 'DimTerm'[TermCode] < _selectedTerm , 'DimTerm'[TermSeason] = _selectedTermSeason) --filter app data to only row for selected term and before selected date var _onlyBeforeDate = SUMMARIZE( FILTER(ALL('Application data') , 'Application data'[AdmitTermCode] = _lastTerm && 'Application data'[EffectiveDate] <= _lastyear) , 'Application data'[StudentNumber] , 'Application data'[z_PartitionKey] , 'Application data'[AppSequence]) -- Determine the most recent row before the selected date for each application var _maxEffectiveDate = INDEX(1 , _onlyBeforeDate , ORDERBY('Application data'[AppSequence], DESC) , PARTITIONBY('Application data'[z_PartitionKey])) return CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Application data'[StudentNumber]), _maxEffectiveDate) Model: Example of Data: Note that multiple admit terms are accepting applications on any given calendar date, so date can't be the only value used to define the current/prior periods.

SQL query to DAX Measure conversion
I have the following SQL query that I have converted to DAX Measure SELECT RowNumber = ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY SSN ORDER BY EOMDate DESC) FROM [TransArchive].dbo.AGGR_Transaction_ChannelUtilization WHERE EOMDate BETWEEN @dteEOMBegin AND @dteEOMEnd DAX Measure ::: Index = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Member Channel Utilization'), FILTER(ALLSELECTED ('Member Channel Utilization') ,FILTER('Member Channel Utilization','Member Channel Utilization'[Report Date]<= EARLIER('Member Channel Utilization'[Report Date])) ,FILTER('Member Channel Utilization','Member Channel Utilization'[EDWCustomerID]= EARLIER('Member Channel Utilization'[EDWCustomerID])))) Please Note :::: ReportDate = EOMdate and SSN =EDWCustomerID I have used ALLSELECTED becasue I want the rownum value to change based on the date range filter and /or any other filter selected by the user on the PowerBI report. When I run the query I get the following message "Too Many Arguments were passed to the FILTER Function. The Maximum argument count for the function is 2".... Could you please let me know how to make this DAX work . Thanks in advance
