Count rows per month

Hi All,

Very basic, yet I am strugling to get the correct result.

I would like to create a trend line with countrows per month/year.

Legend should be x-axis year/month. y-axis # of records. Then to create a slicer/filter according to year/month.

For example, the data in the screenshot below wll be transltated to -->

Jan-2019; 3

Dec-2018; 2

Nov-2018;1

Oct-2018; 1

Sep-2018; 0

...

 

I have created a date table.

I have created a measure to count rows in my table.

I linked Commencment date to the date table.

 

But it is not working for some reason.
Either the trend line is not showing, or the legend is not showing or count is by month over years and not per month/year.

Any guidance?

 

Cheers!

Hi @Anonymous,

 

I have a little confused about your scenario.

 

What visual do you want to create? Line chart?

 

If is is convenient, could you share your data sample which could reproduce your scenario and your formula so that I can have a test with your data to get the solution.

Hi,
This is a dummy data below.
I am trying to create a line graph, or bars.

I want the x-axis to show the month/year (Date Column). y-axis to show the count of records in each month/year

I created a measure --> 

CountRecords = COUNTROWS('Table')
 
I also have a Date table, as explained in this blog.
 
Getting all kind of weird results and not the expected line chart.
 
Expecting to get something like this (with relevant data from my table...)

Also it would be nice to have a slicer/filter according to month, year and multiple select.
i.e. can select 2018, Jan, Feb, March. OR 2018 Dec, 2019 Jan, Feb.
etc.
 
Thanks a lot!
