Need help with DAX formula to only show values in the future

Hello,

 

I am working with a matrix table where users only want to see forecast values GT 0 in the future however my tbl pulls demand & forecast units by period.  Can someone help with some DAX to show forecast for future values while retaining demand values in the past. So in other words per below we should only see Demand for each period and in future forecast.

 

Matrix tbl: 

 
 

201901   201901     201902     201902

Demand  Forecast   Demand  Forecast

20                             15           

 

Thanks in advance,

Hi @MO_123 

Due to I don't know your data model, I build a sample to have a test.

You can change your data model like the table above and then you can achieve your goal.

You can download the pbix file from this link:  Need help with DAX formula to only show values in the future

@MO_123 The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please explain with an example.
Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
Appreciate your Kudos.

@MO_123 Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?


Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

Also, please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Thanks for the quick response.  New to this so let me see if I can share the examples.  The current scenario forecast is displaying null values for history (as it should since we do not retain forecast in the past).  If I try to remove or filter them out demand is also excluded.  Users only want to see the forecast column in the table where there are values.  Hope this is more clear.  

 

Current Scenario:

201901201901201902201902
DemandForecastDemandForecast
20 15 

 

Desired Outcome:

201901201902202010202011
DemandDemandForecastForecast
20153030

 

Thanks again,
Monica
