Filtered measures across date ranges using a many-to-many relationship with dates

Hi there, 

Following on from the post regarding filtering inventory on a dashboard, I was able to create a pre-calculated date value for each row in the main inventory model, allowing for single-select filtering. 

Using the same date dimension and inventory model, I was hoping to employ filtered measures to create two columns each comparing the summation of values across two specific dates (like an opening and closing count of units). This is my current work around for getting the calculations across a date range, however I know that akaplan already considered that this would be difficult given the many-to-many relationship that exists between the models.

Is this what is causing my issue here? As shared in the attached, it does not seem to apply measured filters at all now. 

Appreciate any advice/considerations on these filtered measures, 

Thanks in advance

 

  • Using a duplicated column for both the date range and the column we wish to compare. Then applying the appropriate filtered measure to both - was missing that part.

  • Hi npatel_02,

    Thank you for reaching out. Would you like me to see if we can get a technical resource to work with you directly? It looks like you are working on something specific, and it will be easier to work through the process with someone directly, rather than in bits and pieces here.

  • Hi npatel_02,

    I wanted to check in and see if you still needed help with this. Can you let us know?

    Thank you.
