How do I revert from using refresh policies with an EffectiveDate to using the current date in Tabular Editor 3

How do I revert from using refresh policies with an EffectiveDate to using the current date in Tabular Editor 3?
In Tabular Editor 3, I have implemented refresh policies that rely on an EffectiveDate, but I now need to revert to using the current date instead. What are the steps to modify or remove EffectiveDate-based refresh logic while ensuring data remains up-to-date? How can I adjust the model's calculation logic, update partitions, or manage refresh settings without breaking existing dependencies?

To revert from using EffectiveDate to the current date in Tabular Editor 3, follow these steps:

  1. Modify Calculation Logic – Update DAX expressions to replace EffectiveDate with TODAY() or NOW().
  2. Adjust Partition Queries – Remove references to EffectiveDate in M Query (Power Query) or SQL partitions and use dynamic date logic instead.
  3. Update Refresh Policies – In Model > Table Properties > Refresh Policy, disable or modify policies that depend on EffectiveDate, ensuring incremental refresh works correctly.

Best Practices

 Validate changes with a test refresh to prevent data issues.
 Check for dependencies in measures, calculated columns, and RLS roles.
Monitor performance impact after switching to dynamic date logic.
