KPI not Working

Hello,

 

I am using the KPI visual, but it is not working.

 

I have a measure that calculates the spending and another measure that is the goal of that spending.

 

When I use the cards, it shows the correct values for each measure, but when I put them in the KPI is does not show the correct data.

 

Not sure how to fix this.

 

Thanks!

Hi @LuisGerardoSR ,

 

It may be because you didn't sort by FiscalMonth. KPIs don't have a sort option. You'll need to start again and sort by FiscalMonth before you convert your visualization to a KPI.

 

Reference: Create key performance indicator (KPI) visualizations

Hi @LuisGerardoSR

 

I have struggled with KPI visual in the past. 

What i found useful is as below (There are 100s way for doing the same)

 

For Eg you have 2 measures

MEASURE1 = Which calculates the spending

MEASURE2 = Goal of that spending

Create a new Measure and use DAX as below-

IF(SELECTEDVALUE(Sample_Data[Measure1_Spending])<SELECTEDVALUE(Sample_Data[Measure2_Goal]),UNICHAR(9989), UNICHAR(9940))
 
Instead of KPI Cards, Use Card Visuals and filter out whichever ID you wanna show.

This gives more flexibility to maintain and show KPI's.

not quite, I would like to stick to the KPI visual, I need to show the information just as that visual lays it out.

 

Please help.

 

Thanks!
