I am working on doing analysis for expense reports. Each record has a date of the expense transaction. If the region is US, Canada or North America, I need use use a Jan 1- Dec 31 Fiscal Year. If the region is Europe, the fiscal year is Dec 1 to Nov 30.

An entry in the US on Dec 1, 2014 would fall into year 2014 and 4Q-2014. A European entry on Dec 1 2014 would fall into year 2015 and be Q1 2015.

I've been able do QTR vs prior QTR last year, YOY, and other time comparisons in PP, but this is a new wrinkle.

Can somebody give me general guidelines on how to set this up. Thanks in advance.
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
Can you elaborate on what the problem is exactly?

If the problem is the dual calendars - you add the required EU fiscal date columns (QTR in your case?) to your existing date table and then use some time intelligence functions over at Time Patterns – Dax Patterns
