Cumulative Sales - Getting the Sales Line to Stop

[tylesftw]

Hi All,

I've been given a dataset that has both Sales & Forecast in one dataset. This means that the below code does not work as it extends out the sales line to match the FY2020 months. Without duplicating the dataset, and stripping out Sales & Forecast into separate datas, is there a way to fix this quickly?

Cumulative Actuals =

VAR LastSalesDate = CALCULATE( MAX( 'Report Data'[Time] ), ALL( 'Report Data') )

RETURN

IF( SELECTEDVALUE( 'Date'[Date]) > LastSalesDate, BLANK(),

CALCULATE( [Total Sales] ,

FILTER( ALLSELECTED( 'Date'),

'Date'[Date] <= MAX( 'Date'[Date] ) )))

Thanks

Rob

Hi @tylesftw ,

What's your Axis column?

Try create a measure like

If(selectedvalue(axis column)<=maxx(all(table),reportdate),1,0)

Then add the measure to visual filter measure is 1.

Hi @tylesftw ,

You could add another IF() in your return such that if the MIN('Date'[Date]) is greater than your lastsalesdate variable to return blank(), otherwise your calculation.

If this works for you, please mark it as solution.  Kudos are appreciated too.  Please let me know if not.

@tylesftw ,The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please explain with an example.

Appreciate your Kudos.

Have added the visualisation.. essentially the data looks like

Time | Sales | Forecast

Jan   | $2$00 | $200

April | 0        | $30
