Hi @PedroAguilar,

As GilbertQ said, if you have a complete general structure calendar tables that link to your fact table records, you can consider using time intelligence functions. (it should suitable to Dax beginner but their function has been fixed so you can't custom or neet them with other functions)
In addition, you can also try to manually write expressions with date functions, it should agility than the above functions but they required you have experience in coding DAX formulas.
If you confused about it, share some dummy data with the raw table structure then we can test to coding formula on it.
