DAX code for sum of value from a specifi date

[Anonymous]

Hi all 🙂 

I am trying to calculate the number of vacation dates my employees have. my problem is, that I need to only see the vacation they have planned from 1st of september 2020. I would like to create a ned coloumn in a table, where I currently have three columns: The name of the employee, their initials, and how many vacation days he/she has earned from September.

The next coloum should the be the sum of vacation which the employee have planned, or already been on (from septermer 1st 2020).  I can't figure out how to create a DAX code, which allows me to sum the vacation days for the employees with the date filter. 

I hope you lovely people can help me with this! 🙂 Thank you so much in advance

@Anonymous , Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

As sep last month you can use time intelligence and date table like given in the example

MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))
last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))

Hi @amitchandak 🙂

I am not interesten in the last mtd, but from 1st of september 2020 to (forever). 

I have my time registration in one table and my calculations in another (see below).

I would like the coloum Afholdt ferie (means Vacation which have already been held), to only show me the registred vacation from september and onwards. The table Ferie[Ferietimer] shows all the vacation from may 2019. 

My end goal is to somwhow create a DAX code, where it only takes the vacation posted after the 1st of september 2020, and sum it in the table.

Hi, @Anonymous 

You can try to create a calculated column as follows to filter your vacation

Column = 
SUMX (
    FILTER (
        Vacation,
        'Vacation'[Employee] = 'Table'[Employee]
            && Vacation[Date_Month] >= DATE ( 2020, 09, 01 )
    ),
    Vacation[Vacation hour]
)

I am not clear about the structure of your timetable, so I made a simple example, hope it will work for you.
