I get alot of requests, to see data over time, like I want to see last 2 month , last 14 month, last......
up till now i have made that manualy, pr report, but i want a row in the calender table, that index my months
And im pretty sure this can be done with like 3 or 4 lines of code, i simply dont know where to start (either SQL, so i can do it on DW, or how to in PowerBI 🙂 )
All dates in this month is 0
all dates in last month is -1
all dates 2 month ago is -2
.....
all dates 14 month ago is -14
all dates in next month is 1
date (YYYY-MM-DD) | index |
2021-12-31 | 3 |
2021-10-01 | 1 |
2021-09-30 | 0 |
2021-09-23 | 0 |

Hi @Rygaard ,
I think this would work. Create a new column in your Calendar Table in PowerBI:

SEE this is why i asked ... i knew someone had some magic up their sleeves !!!! - TY
Hello @Rygaard ,
You can try creating calculated column as:
Index =
var _today= TODAY()
Var _Diff= DATEDIFF(TODAY(),'Table'[Date],MONTH)
Return
_Diff
Please mark this as solution if it resolves your issue. Kudos are also appreciated.
Hi @Rygaard ,
*EDIT* simplified answer into single code block.
In Power Query you would do something like this:
Table.AddColumn(
previousStep,
"relativeMonth",
each (Date.Year([date]) * 12 + Date.Month([date])) - (Date.Year(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow())) * 12 + Date.Month(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow())))
)
