I am trying to create a KPI to show whether or not a value is above the stated goal. However, the value displayed by the KPI (37.15) is different from the value displayed when I drag the same measure onto the page and make it a card (37.11).
I am using a simple measure for the goal of 15.
What could account for this? I also noticed that the value changes depending on what I set as the Trend Axis, so I'm not sure what I need to do to correct this.

Hi @Anonymous
See attached image.
The reason you see a difference is that the KPI visual is a trend KPI and shows the latest value of the date item you place in the 'Trend Axis'. The 0.87 is an overall value of your data.
Hope that helps.

Hi @Anonymous,
With current information, it is hard to say where the issue is.
Could you please share us your pbix file with One Drive or Google Drive if possible? So that we can dig deeper and make some tests.
Thanks,

Hi, I am still quite unable to understand this. A person in my community has suggested using the max of goals for each cell value to negate the KPI visual to take the current value of the latest month. But I don't understand this intricacy. Would appreciate your help with this. Thanks.
That makes total sense! I knew it had to be something simple. Is it possible to get the overall value displayed instead?
Remove the date value?
No, unfortunately this particular visual uses the trend axis, if you were to have a slicer or filter on the page that would use that and default to that particular date, but without any other selection it would use the data set available for the Trend Axis.
Perhaps check the custom visuals for alternative KPI visuals, or what you could do is put the KPI in the table and use conditional formatting to show the trend status?
Let me know how you get on.
Thanks
