You have a Power BI model that contains two tables named Sales and Date. Sales contains four columns named TotalCost, DueDate, ShipDate, and OrderDate.
Date contains one column named Date.
The tables have the following relationships:
✑ Sales[DueDate] and Date[Date]
✑ Sales[ShipDate] and Date[Date]
✑ Sales[OrderDate] and Date[Date]
The active relationship is on Sales[DueDate].
You need to create measures to count the number of orders by [ShipDate] and the orders by [OrderDate]. You must meet the goal without duplicating data or loading additional data.
Solution: You create measures that use the CALCULATE, COUNT, and FILTER DAX functions.
Does this meet the goal?
Answer options
- A. Yes
- B. No
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The solution meets the goal because using CALCULATE, COUNT, and FILTER allows for counting orders based on the specified dates without duplicating data or requiring additional data loading. Option B is incorrect as it suggests that the solution does not fulfill the requirement, which is false given the DAX functions can effectively handle the counting as needed.
