DATESQTD
The dates from the start of the quarter to the last date in the filter context.
Group: Time intelligence. Compatible with DAX.
Syntax
DATESQTD ( <dates> )
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
dates | Dates | A column of dates of the model, such as Sales[Month], or the name of a calendar defined in the model. |
Returns
Table. The column's dates from the start of the quarter to the last date in the filter context.
Remarks
- The quarter is the calendar quarter of the last date in the filter context.
- Given a column, it reads the dates visible in the current filter context; in a row context, such as
ADDCOLUMNS, the row becomes a filter first, so each row sees its own dates. - Used as a filter in
CALCULATE, it gives a quarter-to-date figure, asTOTALQTDdoes. - Only dates the column holds come back: a date the move or the period lands on that the column lacks is left out, and when none is left the table is empty.
- Given a calendar instead of a column, it works on the calendar's own periods (fiscal years, retail months of four or five weeks, ISO weeks). A filter on a category the calendar does not define, such as a month on a calendar of weeks, can make the call an error.
