PowerBI Goals Dataset: Target only gets saved on single date.

[Anonymous]

Hi, I am using PowerBI Goals and connected to its dataset.

I need some help with the way the data is stored.

I am trying to create a linear graph with history of the values that were inserted. Next to that, I want a straight line as a target-line.

The table with data looks as follows:

If I create a line-chart from this table called 'values', I get the following.

This is because the 'target' field is filled on 27/5 and 28/5. But not on other dates.

Does anybody have a solution to take the latest filled value in the 'target' column for every name (as there are multiple names other than 'offshored hours' and insert it to all target fields. 

As I am using a direct-query connection, I cannot use the query editor.

Thanks already!

Hi, @Anonymous 

I am not sure if I understood your question correctly but please check the below picture and the sample pbix file's link down below.

Target Latest value =
CALCULATE (
LASTNONBLANKVALUE ( 'Table'[Timestamp], SUM ( 'Table'[Target] ) ),
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Name] )
)

Hello @Jihwan_Kim 

Thanks so much for sharing, I think your solution is really close.

Unfortunately I forgot to mention that the 'values' table has a relationship with another table 'goals'. Therefore, your current solution does not work yet.

I have my datamodel with the exact data in the following file:

Hope you can see what the datamodel is and find the right solution.

Thanks already!
