This is the best explanation I've come across on how to do this. I loved how you showed the actual steps so that I could follow along and explained what each step was doing. I'm not a coder, but I could follow this. I like how you went back at the end and showed how it appeared in the data field.

Another great video!! I have one question. At 16:45 all of the added columns appear to be the Date data type. But at other places (like 11:21) they are still text or whole number. Howe are you managing this conversion? If I simply change the data type, PBI converts the number to a date based on that value (i.e. 2022 becomes Friday, July 14, 1905). Thank you!

Am I correct to assume the automated date tables also don't allow you to use Dax code that let you compare month to previous month? Only after applying a custom table did such calculations work. But I'm not 100% on whether this is due to the automated date tables or something else.

the more unique values, the worse the data will be compressed. Therefore it is better to split it and make sure to truncate it to minutes (if you dont need seconds or hours if you dont need more granularity).

Hi Bas, this is extremely helpful. Thnx! But ... (there is always a But 😉) ... the schoolorganisation where I work (vmbo/mbo in the Netherlands) we're so occupied teaching that it feels like the ink on one Q-report is still wet or the next Q-report has to be written. So we decided to split the year in thirds (tertial reporting). It gives us time to breath (and teach). How can I add such a tertial number column to my date table? Is there a mod function in Power Query or DAX e.g. (DayNr mod(122))+1?

I would create 1 - and then create a relation on all 3 date fields (no 2 and 3 will b inactive). You can then write a measure that uses the relation you like. For example: CALCULATE ( SUM ( fctSales[Sales] ), USERELATIONSHIP ( fctSales[Due Date], 'dimDate'[Date] ) )

@@HowtoPowerBI thank you - in my difficult quest from Qlik to PowerBI, I am drilling down into the data modelling differences and I am very much scared by the loss of the associative modelling :( The fact that custom measures are the best way to cross-filter slicers, given the lack of many to many relationships... probably the result can be the same in 99% of the cases, but building the data model in Power BI seems to require much more knowledge and attention and a lot of workarounds to make things work as one would expect, am I wrong?

Dear Bas, again a very helpful video. I've been looking for a long time for a solution to have a field in the calandar table descending sort year - month number. The reason is a descending sort in a matrix. Have you got any idea how to bulld such a field ?

Hi Andreas, thank you! you could build a separate year desc and year desc sort column. Then do that as well for the month. I added an example in the download (see description).

@@HowtoPowerBI Hi Bas, thanks a lot for immediate reply. I show in my matrix only one field Year/month (Text.End(Text.From([Year]),2) & "-" & [Month]) and I have build the appropriate sort field with ([MonthNum] + [Year]*100). However, I could not find to get the Year/Month field converted in descending order.

@@andreasschmidt2766 I have updated the example in the download file (datetable_sort_desc.pbix) . The main idea is that you have a YearMonth Desc sort order (multiply by one) (make sure it has data type whole number). Let me know if it is clear from the updated example.

Hi Bas, When I was looking for custom date table I found this code to create list of dates, the easiest: Source = {Number.From(#date(2019,1,1))..Number.From(#date(2020,12,31))}, #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Converted to Table",{{"Column1", type date}}), #"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Changed Type",{{"Column1", "Date"}}) What do you think about it?

your first need to build the date table like in the video .. then you can do the time/period calculations using dax (see vid here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f56JaMlzrN3VlYU.html )

When I try to Sort Day by column DayNo, I get the error "We can't sort 'Day' column by 'DayNo'. There can't be more than one value in 'DayNo' for the same value in 'Day'. Please chose a different column for sorting or update the data in 'DayNo' ". Does anybody know why? For the other columns the change of default sorting is working

you lost me at 18mins13sec but from some further googling I see you must have right clicked to create the hierarchy. I appreciate all the videos but us newbies sometimes need a little more info. I agree with another user - can you make your mouse cursor more visible. Thanks
