Dear Colleagues,
When I calculate this single expression it is ok:
LastActualDate:=LASTNONBLANK(Clasa6si7[FECHA],1)
But when I wrap it inside a variable, I get the error "The syntax for LastActualDate is incorrect"
Am I doing something wrong? (Excel2013 Powerpivot)
BudgetYTD:=
VAR
LastActualDate:=LASTNONBLANK(Clasa6si7[FECHA],1)
RETURN
CALCULATE(
SUM(AppendOGOAll[P2017cost]),
FILTER(
ALL(CalendarTable[Calendar Date]),
CalendarTable[Calendar Date] <= LastActualDate
))
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @ViorelCa
1. DAX variables are only available from the 2015 edition of DAX so: PowerPivot for Excel 2016, Power BI Desktop & SSAS 2016. Thus, not in PowerPivot for Excel 2013.
2. In any of the three softwares mentioned above, you should remove the " : " in the variable definition and also remove the 'filter' function (which is useless thanks to the variable).
This one would work:
BudgetYTD = VAR LastActualDate=LASTNONBLANK(Clasa6si7[FECHA],1) RETURN Calculate( SUM(AppendOGOAll[P2017cost]) , CalendarTable[Calendar Date] <= LastActualDate)
