Generate Calendar Table in Power BI with Fiscal Year Attributes

In Power BI go to
Get Data --> Blank Query
and paste into the Function windows the text below.

This function takes as parameters:
- StartYear (e.g., 2012)
- EndYear (e.g., 2018)
-FiscalYearStartMonth (e.g., 4)

And it will generate a calendar table for dates from Jan-1-<StartYear> till Dec-31-<EndYear> and columns for Fiscal Year, Fiscal Month, Fiscal Quarter, Fiscal Year Day where the Fiscal year begins on FiscalYearStartMonth


= (StartYear as number, EndYear as number, FiscalYearStartMonth as number)=>
let
    //Capture the date range from the parameters
    StartDate = #date(StartYear, 1, 1),
    EndDate = #date(EndYear, 12, 31),
//Get the number of dates that will be required for the table
    GetDateCount = Duration.Days(EndDate - StartDate)+1,
//Take the count of dates and turn it into a list of dates
    GetDateList = List.Dates(StartDate, GetDateCount,
    #duration(1,0,0,0)),
//Convert the list into a table
    DateListToTable = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Table.FromList(GetDateList, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), {"Date"}, null, ExtraValues.Error),{{"Date", type date}}),
//Create various date attributes from the date column
    //Add Year Column

    else  if Date.IsLeapYear(#date([Year]-1,1,1))
          then 367 + [Year Day]- Date.DayOfYear(#date([Year]-1, FiscalYearStartMonth, 1))

Joining Windows 10 to Azure AD Domain

As of October 2016 to join Windows 10 computers to Azure AD Domain service requires these steps: Create a VNET in the classic portal . The VNET must be placed to a region where Azure AD domain service is available (( https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/regions/services/ )  In the classic portal  go to Directory -> Configure and enable the domain service. And wait for ~ 30 min When completed the IP address will be populated Go back to the VNET configuration and add a DNS server with the IP (10.0.0.4 in this case) Create the "AAD DC Administrator" administrators group (again in Directory -> Group). Members of this group are granted administrative privileges on machines that are domain-joined to the Azure AD Domain Services managed domain. Add to the group your users who are supposed to have the administrative access on a Windows 10 computer go to Settings -> Accounts (this is true for Windows 10 version  1607) then select 'Access work

Create 3-Node Windows 2012 Multi-subnet Cluster

Environment There are two Data centers connected via a WAN link. Two Windows 2012 Servers (called SQLDEV1 and SQLDEV2) are located in the Primary Data Center (on the IP subnet 192.168.79.0/24) and the third server is placed in the Secondary Data Center with the 192.168.69.0/24 subnet. We’ll be creating a three-node Windows cluster with no shared storage on the multi subnet network with a file share witness at the Primary Data Center. We’ll be using a file share witness to protect from the cluster failure in a situation when the network between the Data Centers is unavailable and one of the servers in the Primary Data Center is also down (or being rebooted). The final state will look like depicted above: -           Two Virtual IP’s will be assigned (192.168.76.218 and 192.168.69.134) to the cluster -           The servers at the Primary Data Center will have a vote (Vote=1) and the server at the Secondary Data Center will have no vote (Vote=0). The file share witness al
