CALCULATE filter is overriding other Calendar table columns

[dlopezm]

Hi, 

I have a table with Budget for past years and current year. Budget measure. Axis from visualization comes from Calendar Table. 

Data Model with Calendar Table. Calendar Table is defined in Query Editor. 

Then i use CALCULATE to modify the filters and obtain just current year budget. Everything ok until here. 

But when I add Calendar[Date] <= TODAY() as a second filter, I get the same value for all months, including months not from current year. 

What I was expecting was to obtain just the budget from each one of the months in current year that have already passed. 

What am I not seeing? Is CALCULATE() overriding a filter? Which one and why?

@dlopezm try this

Budget Current Year = 
CALCULATE ( [Budget], Calendar[Year Offset] = 0,
KEEPFILTERS( Calendar[Date] <= TODAY() )
)

I would ❤ Kudos if my solution helped. 👉 If you can spend time posting the question, you can also make efforts to give Kudos whoever helped to solve your problem. It is a token of appreciation!

Thanks @parry2k  , your proposal is working. 

But my question is also "Why is CALCULATE() overriding the filters applied to the visualization?" since I'm not using the Calendar[Date] column as a filter in any place of the visualization.

@dlopezm  when you are using condition like this Table[Date] <= TODAY(), it is converted to FILTER( ALL ( Table[Date] ), Table[Date] <= TODAY() ) and that's why the value was repeating. Hope it helps.

What I'm not getting is: why does the visualization removes Calendar[Year] and Calendar[Month] as filters when I use Calendar[Date] <= TODAY() inside CALCULATE()  but it doesn't remove the filter when I use Calendar[Year Offset] = 0 , even though they are coming from the same table, the Calendar table.

Does my question make any sense @parry2k ?
