Naming Academic years as Quarters

[samioberoi]

Hi

How can i name Academic year Sep till Nov as Q1 and Dec till Jan Q2 so on and so forth? I tried to use switch statement on date dimension, but that changes the count of data on each quarter completely. So, i don't want to change anything on the date dimension, but i just want to name the month ranges like Sep till Nov as Q1 and Dec till Jan Q2 etc.

Hoping to get some help on this. 

Thanks

you can try this

academic year = switch(TRUE(),
'date'[month] in {9,10,11},"Q1",
'date'[month] in {12,1,2},"Q2",
'date'[month] in {3,4,5},"Q3",
"Q4")

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for your help. I tried this swich statement before Asalaam well, but on the visualization it is changing the data. By using this switch statement it brings the 2019 Q4 from the original visualization to Q1. Same for 2020 it brings the Q4 from the first column chart to Q1 after the switch statement. I don't know how i can fix it.

Some help on this will be much appreciated.

Thanks

you can create an academic year quarter column or academic year column to fix this.
