Why I am getting two values for MTD

I have created the measure to calculate MTD sales.

 

Sales MTD = TOTALMTD([Total Sales],DimDate[Date])

 

With above measure I am getting the following value.

To check the accuracy I manually filtered the Total Sales value with FactSales Table's date column as follows and I am getting a different value.

Again I filtered manually with Date table's date column and I am getting the measure value.

@Anonymous , Date has a time stamp. I created a new date column. Joined Date of date with it. It  is working fine now.

Date1 = date(year([Date]),month([Date]),day([Date]))

Try to filter total sales in visual manually with FactSales[Date] instead of DimDate[Date]
