What is Time Intelligence? Time intelligence is the calculations over a specific time period i.e for example Sales or Profit over dates, months, quarters, or years. Before using time intelligence DAX functions we should have a date dimension in our model. For this there are two methods. Use a custom date dimension : Create your own date table using script in M query or you can built-in default one. The easiest way to learn the time intelligence is taking an example of TOTALYTD and DATES YTD function in DAX. Method 1 : Sales YTD using TOTALYTD DAX function This would give you the sales for a particular year from Year beginning to a specified date range . Syntax for TOTALYTD is: TotalYTD( expression, dates, [filter], [year end date]) Method 2 : Compute Sales YTD using DATESYTD DAX function Syntax for DATESYTD is : DatesYTD (dates, year end date) Iink to pbix File for Practice: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1b2Ee...
