Unable to draw multiple lines on line chart correctly

[aznariy]

Alright, it's been a month now and I am exausted in looking for a solution online. I believe I have tried all the known solutions. Let me describe the problem below

I have a simple table

If I do matrix on this table, I got following results (and they are right):

However, if I try to place those values on line chart, numbers messed up

This is my settings for line chart

What magic needs to be done so that numbers are displayed correctly on line chart as in martix? Please advise whoever faced the same problem in PowerBi. Thanks!

Hi @aznariy,

The question you have is related with the row context of your data. When you place one of the date columns on your chart as axis, this set the context of the chart so the count of the dates is not made by the value of each date but by the one that you place on the axis.

 What I mean with this is that since you are using the Createdate as your axis, if you have 7 records with CrreatedDate for january 1st all of the others columns are also 7 records you will never get the count of january 2nd because your context is the createdate.

On the matrix / table since you are using the other date columns for context you have the correct results.

You need to do the following:

• Create a calendar table
• Create inactive relationship between the calendar table and all your date columns
• Create the following measures:

Create =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( Table1[CreatedDate] );
    USERELATIONSHIP ( Table1[CreatedDate]; 'Calendar'[Date] )
)


Activated =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( Table1[ActivatedDate] );
    USERELATIONSHIP ( Table1[ActivatedDate]; 'Calendar'[Date] )
)


Closed =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( Table1[ClosedDate] );
    USERELATIONSHIP ( Table1[ClosedDate]; 'Calendar'[Date] )
)


Resolved =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( Table1[ResolvedDate] );
    USERELATIONSHIP ( Table1[ResolvedDate]; 'Calendar'[Date] )
)

• Use your calendar table as a x-axis and add your measures to the values the end result is below:

If you need sample of PBIX file please tell.

Hi Miguel,

I am facing issues with drilling down my data. For example, I want to look at who have registered for a course the month of July. When I click on the graph, it does not give a drill down of the names. 

Please help if possible. Thanks!

Hi @e0318476 ,

The question here is context since you are not using the full name that is not part of the measures you are using for the line chart you don't get the result you need.

You need to add the data context to your calculation. Add the following measure:

Count rows =
COUNTROWS (
    FILTER (
        SUMMARIZE (
            'Table',
            'Table'[Full Name],
            'Table'[Completion Date],
            'Table'[Registration Date]
        ),
        'Table'[Completion Date]
            IN VALUES ( 'calendar'[Date] )
                || 'calendar'[Completion] IN VALUES ( 'calendar'[Date] )
    )
)

Top char the same has yours, bottom chart with trhe measure above.
