@cottrera , not very clear, this how you can get day wise data

Last Day Non Continous = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(all('Date'),'Date'[Date] =MAXX(FILTER(all('Date'),'Date'[Date]<max('Date'[Date])),Table['Date'])))
or
Day behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Day))
or
Last Day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]=max('Date'[Date])-1))
////
This Day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]=max('Date'[Date])))
Or
This Day =sum('order'[Qty])

 

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

Hi,

in your date tabe add a column for working days and none working days and use DAX

WorkingDay_Mark =
VAR WeekDayNum =
WEEKDAY ( DimDate[Date] )
RETURN
(
IF ( WeekDayNum = 1 || WeekDayNum = 7 ,0,1)
)
 
 

Working days.PNG

 

then Count rows that contain 1

 

Let me know how it works out for t

Hi 

 

thank you for your response. I already have this column on my dates table. I am having trouble explaining what I want possibly down to lack of knowledge.

@cottrera - Sorry, I am not clear on what you want. What would be your expected results from the information provided and why?

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Hi based on the table below and using 2 dax formulas one for each result I would expect these results

Todays result (01/06/2020) = 6
Previous working day (29/05/2020 = 4
