Exclude Current month

Hi experts,

I need your help to exclude current month inventory. Below is the  expression I use to get Jira tickets closed last month. But I need to get the remaining inventory for tickets not closed last month excluding current month. That is, tickets that were not closed last month excluding the ones created for current month. Any suggestions?

 

SUM({<[Closed Date] ={">=$(=MonthStart(Today(),-1)) <=$(=MonthEnd(Today(),-1))"}>} [Closed Count])

Hi Ngumdo,

The problem probably lies in the date format. When you work with dates, always try to floor them (make numeric numbers) for minimizing these kinds of problems.

In your script, floor the date Closed Date and try this formula:

SUM({<[Closed Date] ={">=$(=floor(MonthStart(Today(),-1))) <=$(=floor(MonthEnd(Today(),-1)))"}>} [Closed Count])

Count({$<[Date Created]={"=[Date Created]<MonthEnd(AddMonths(Today(),-1))"},[Status Name]=- {'Closed'}>}DISTINCT [Issue ID])

 

The above is another code I got to exclude jira tickets for current month.  I still do not get the right result . That is, only  tickets that were opened before current  month and  where still open or not closed by beginning current month. This should exclude all tickets opened in current month. I have also attached the data model. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
