I need help

Hello!

I have a database containing student enrolments, the dates of which range from June to October 2021 and May to July 2022.

To do this, I need to calculate the accumulated of these registrations per year and also make a graph of lines to compare the accumulated of both years.

I have tried every possible formula, but nothing is working for me.

I would appreciate your help!!

Best regards

Hi @Syndicate_Admin ,

 

1 create a model like the following( add a calendar table for the fact table):

2 create a measure via:

Measure = 
calculate(DISTINCTCOUNT('Fact table'[id]),  DATESYTD('calendar'[Date]))

 

Result:

Hello,

As long as you have a unique ID per enrolment and the enrolment date column, marked as data type 'date' and in a relationship with your date table, it should be straightforward to aggregate your enrolments as a measure in DAX;

 

                 Number of enrolments = DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK(Table[EnrolmentID]),
                 

 

Then with your date hierarchy - I would drag Year, then month, then date of your date table into the X axis of a line chart so that you can toggle up to Year to compare years. Drag Number of enrolments into the Y axis.

 

 

Thank you.

I did as he told me, but my problem persists.

When graphing, the gross and non-accumulated valoes appear as I need.

Also, I need the lines from both years to appear on the same chart.
