Group by day in calendar table

[jeanseb]

Hello, I am quite new on this platform and I need help concerning Power BI!

I have a table "users" which indicates the date of creation of users, and a table "messages" which indicates the date of creation of messages. I would like to create a calendar table which would group by day the number of users and the number of messages (see below picture). In my calendar table, what is the formula for calculated columns "number_of_users" and "number_of_messages" ? 

Thanks a lot,

Jean-Sebastien

Hi @jeanseb,

If you want to get "number_of_users" and "number_of_messages" every day, you can create a Calendar table using the formula.

Calendar=Calendar(MIN(Table[created_at]),MAX(Table[created_at]))

Then follow up @Vvelarde solution, you will get expected result.

Hi, a solution would be like this:

1. Create a New Table (Modeling - New Table):

CalendarTable = DISTINCT(UNION(VALUES(Messages[Created at]);VALUES(Users[Created at])))

2. Related the 3 tables:

3. Create 2 calculated Columns:

NumberofUsers = COUNTROWS(RELATEDTABLE(Users))+0

NumberofMessages = COUNTROWS(RELATEDTABLE(Messages))+0

Ready.
