A simple YTD DAX doesn't work as expected - why?

Hi,

 

I'm struggeling to understand why my TOTALYTD function doesn't work as it should be.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi @NirH_at_BITeam

 

You need to create a Calendar table which contains a date column, build a relationship between Invoice table and Calendar table based on the date column. Then create a measure like below: 

 

InvoiceAmount YTD = TOTALYTD([InvoiceAmount Measure], Calendar[Date])
