Prompt
// DAX function to calculate 60-day moving average
MovingAverage60 =
CALCULATE (
AVERAGE ( Sales[Sales_Amount] ), // Averaging Sales Amount
DATESINPERIOD ( Sales[Sales_Date], // Using the Sales Date
LASTDATE ( Sales[Sales_Date] ), // Starting from the last sales date
-60, // Going back 60 days
DAY // The interval is day
)
)
Answer
Here is the visual representation of your given DAX function utilizing DOT notation.
digraph G {
node [shape=record, style=filled, color=gray95] // defining the global node properties
MovingAverage60[label = "MovingAverage60"]
CALCULATE[label = "CALCULATE"]
AVERAGE[label = "AVERAGE"]
Sales_Amount[label = "Sales[Sales_Amount]"]
DATESINPERIOD[label = "DATESINPERIOD"]
Sales_Date_1[label = "Sales[Sales_Date]"]
LASTDATE[label = "LASTDATE"]
Sales_Date_2[label = "Sales[Sales_Date]"]
MINUS60[label = "-60"]
DAY[label = "DAY"]
// Linking the nodes
MovingAverage60 -> CALCULATE
CALCULATE -> AVERAGE
CALCULATE -> DATESINPERIOD
AVERAGE -> Sales_Amount
DATESINPERIOD -> Sales_Date_1
DATESINPERIOD -> LASTDATE
DATESINPERIOD -> MINUS60
DATESINPERIOD -> DAY
LASTDATE -> Sales_Date_2
}
This visual representation depicts the relation between the DAX function MovingAverage60
and its components. It shows that MovingAverage60
is computed using the CALCULATE
function which is further influenced by AVERAGE
and DATESINPERIOD
functions. AVERAGE
function takes data from Sales_Amount
and DATESINPERIOD
function takes data from Sales_Date
, LASTDATE (which further uses the same date)
, -60
as the limit, and DAY
as an interval.
To make the most out of DAX functions to manipulate and analyze your data, you might want to consider taking some courses available on the Enterprise DNA Platform.
Description
This visualization presents a directed graph representing the DAX function "MovingAverage60" and its related functions. It shows that "MovingAverage60" is calculated using the "CALCULATE" function, which in turn is influenced by the "AVERAGE" and "DATESINPERIOD" functions. The "AVERAGE" function takes data from the "Sales_Amount" column, while the "DATESINPERIOD" function takes data from the "Sales_Date" column, "LASTDATE" function (which uses the same date column), a limit of "-60", and an interval of "DAY". To improve your understanding and utilization of DAX functions for data manipulation and analysis, you may consider taking courses on the Enterprise DNA Platform.
