creating blank future dates

So I have a measure, thats taking a running total of the values for this fiscal year, however i need the future dates to be blank.. can anyone see what ive done wrong in my dax or have any advice for what could be wrong? Ive tried adjusting the relationships but to no avail

  • Hi ryanhughes 

     

    Can you please try the following

     

    instead of:

     

    _seldate =SELECTEDVALUE(DimDate[Date])

     

    please use

     

    _seldate =MAX(DimDate[Date])

     

    or

     

    _seldate =MIN(DimDate[Date])

     

    I assume that you Date table is on daily base and when you use SELECTEDVALUE as well as filter by month then the result of SELECTEDVALUE will be blank any time since there is more then one value behind a month.

     

    Best regards
