Reference line on a combo chart showing total irrispective of month

Hi

I hope someone can help

I am trying to write a measure which sums the total costs in a column and plot it as a horizontal target line on the graph. The bit I cannot get to work is making it consistant across all months (the X axis) rather than variable depending on the month.

I have had a look at using the constant line feature, however I need it to by dynamic and change as more costs are added to the source data

Your help would be greatly appreciated

Hi @Matt22365 ,

 

Try this:

 

1. Create a Measure like so:

Sum Measure = SUMX ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Value] )

 

2. Create a Line and Stacked column chart. And I opened "Align zeros".

Then, the Sum Measure will change as the underlying data changes.

Use ALL or ALLEXCEPT or REMOVEFILTERS to exclude your month/date as a filter.
