power query: current year to date versus previous year for the same period

Hello

I have a 2 year sales table (previous year to this day).

Example: today is 22/01/2022

I want to filter in power Query the column "FECHA_VENTA" in such a way to get only the sales from:

- from January 1 of the Current Year to Diadehoy/mesactual/current year (that is, from 01/01/2022 to 22/01/2022))

- and the same period but last year:

- from January 1 of the YearAnterior to Diadehoy/mesactual/añoaPrevious (that is, from 01/01/2021 to 22/01/2021)

you can please help me to correctly put these conditions in the date filter

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

I already have the solution, it has been given to me by the user "mahoneypat" of the Forum in English, it works perfectly for those who needed it:

Here is the configuration of the date filter in power Query:

= Table.SelectRows(#"Inserted Year", each let today = Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) in ([Date] >= Date.StartOfYear(Date.AddYears(today, -1)) and [Date] <= Date.AddYears(today, -1)) or (Date.Year([Date]) = Date.Year(today) and [Date] <= today))

Are you sure you want to do that in Power Query?

Please provide sanitized sample data that fully covers your issue. Paste the data into a table in your post or use one of the file services. Please show the expected outcome.

Initial data:

02/01/2021 2

Data desired result assuming that we are on 22/01/2022:

FECHA_VENTA Invoice

I'm looking to complete the filter conditions in column FECHA_VENTA in Power Query, I guess it will be something like this:

= Table.SelectRows(#"columna", each [FECHA_VENTA] >= #datetime(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())-1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0)) and [Date] <= #datetime(Date.Year(DateTime.LocalNow())-1, Date.Month(DateTime.LocalNow()), 1, 0, 0, 0)) .................................

Nb:

in MS ACCESS, it would be something like this:
Between DateSerial(Year(Date())-1;1;1) AND DateSerial(Year(Date())-1; Month(Date());Day(Date()))
AND
Between DateSerial(Year(Date());1;1) AND Today()

I already have the solution, it has been given to me by the user "mahoneypat" of the Forum in English, it works perfectly for those who needed it:

Here is the configuration of the date filter in power Query:

= Table.SelectRows(#"Inserted Year", each let today = Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) in ([Date] >= Date.StartOfYear(Date.AddYears(today, -1)) and [Date] <= Date.AddYears(today, -1)) or (Date.Year([Date]) = Date.Year(today) and [Date] <= today))
