stop running total if today-1 DAX

[Anonymous]

Hi, 

i need some help in understanding why my dax measure only returns blank rows for my rolling total as soon as i add my clause to stop if Period[DATE]= TODAY()-1

my tables are joined on Period[Datekey] = Sales[DimDatekey]

This returns a correct running total but includes ofcourse days which have no sales since it goes further than my last sale date. 

Rolling 7 days =

CALCULATE([Sales Volume],DATESINPERIOD(Period[Date],LASTDATE(Period[Date]),-7,DAY))

As soon as i add this, all rows blanks out and returns 0. Im probably doing something wrong but i cant get my head around it. 

2 Rolling 7 days =

IF(

SELECTEDVALUE(Period[Date])=TODAY()-1,

CALCULATE([Sales Volume],DATESINPERIOD(Period[Date],LASTDATE(Period[Date]),-7,DAY))

)

@Reaper1337 , Test as

Rolling 7 days ? CALCULATE(sum(Sal[Sales Amount]),DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date],max(Sales[Sales Date]),-7,Day))

O

Rolling 7 days ? CALCULATE(sum(Sal[Sales Amount]),DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date],max(Sales[Sales Date])-1 ,-7,Day))

O

Rolling 7 days ? CALCULATE(sum(Sal[Sales Amount]),DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date],max('Date'[Date]),-7,Day))

Rolling 7 days ? CALCULATE(sum(Sal[Sales Amount]),DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date],max('Date'[Date]) -1 ,-7,Day))

To get the best out of the time intelligence function. Make sure that you have a date calendar and that it has been marked as the date in the model view. Also, join her with the date column of your events. See :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your congratulations.

Can you try the following measure

IF(
isblank([Sales Volume]), blank(),
CALCULATE([Sales Volume],DATESINPERIOD(Period[Date],max(Period[Date])-1,-7,DAY))
)
