Apologises if this question has already been raised but I'm struggling with my data model to create a rolling total / YTD sales using fiscal years.
I know PowerBI/DAX is great using calendar Jan-Dec dates but how do you amend this if your financial year begins in March-April instead?
When I created my calendar table, I used the CALENDEARAUTO() which gave me a column of dates from Jan to Dec as expected and when I change the function to CALENDERAUTO(3), my date column begins from March to April which makes sense.
However, if I use the CALCULATE and DATESYTD functions to sum the total sales column and choose the date column as described above, the result looks like:
Actual YTD = CALCULATE(sum('spend'[Actual]),DATESYTD('Fiscal Year Table'[Date],"03-31"))
What do I need to do exactly for it work in this exact date format?
Many thanks
