How to Display Count of Value by Relative Date

Hello,

 

I have data for applications, and I'd like to display the counts over the past 30, 90 and 365 days as shown below

 

 30 Days90 days365 days
Applications10100120

 

I am not sure how to get the relative date (from today's date) and the counts in the columns. The date field I have in my data is by the Application's Received date. 

 

Thank you

Hi, @sheap069 

 

 

Based on your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario, The pbix file is attached in the end.

Table:

You may create measures as below.

30 Days = 
COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(
        ALL('Table'),
        DATEDIFF([Date],TODAY(),DAY)<=30&&
        DATEDIFF([Date],TODAY(),DAY)>=0
    )
)
90 Days = 
COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(
        ALL('Table'),
        DATEDIFF([Date],TODAY(),DAY)<=90&&
        DATEDIFF([Date],TODAY(),DAY)>=0
    )
)
365 Days = 
COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(
        ALL('Table'),
        DATEDIFF([Date],TODAY(),DAY)<=365&&
        DATEDIFF([Date],TODAY(),DAY)>=0
    )
)

 

Result:

Hi @v-alq-msft 

 

Thank you very much. This helped and I got the result I wanted.

 

However, now I want to take it a step further. Say I have three different application types, and this will be in another column. How can I make a table like the following?

 

Application Type

30 Days

90 Days

365 Days

>1 year 

Type 1

10

15

30

50

Type 2

5

20

25

40

Type 3

4

15

40

30

 

I also want to show the percentage of each application type in the table, so it would be like this:

 

Application Type

30 Days

90 Days

365 Days

>1 year 

Type 1

10

15

30

50

Type 2

5

20

25

40

Type 3

4

15

40

30

All Apps

19

50

95

120

Percent Type 1

52%

30%

31%

42%

Percent Type 2

26%

40%

26%

33%

Percent Type 3

21%

30%

42%

25%

I also have another table in my data that shares the Application ID column, and there are also types of applications that I want to count, as shown above. However it doesn't have the received date column that I'm using here. How can I modify the formula to do the counts for the application types in that table as well?

Thank you very much

@sheap069 for this kind of calculations, you should add a date dimension to your model, here is one of my blog posts talks about how to add one.

 

And once you have the date dimension in your model, use DATESINPERIOD and/or DATESBETWEEN to get the data.

Feel free to email me with any of your BI needs.

I've added the Date dimension to my data but I'm not sure how to use DATESINPERIOD to count my applications that were received in these times, then put the counts into a table. I want to put those categories as columns and have the counts as rows.
