Helper IMonthly Progress in % as Gauge Target
Hello, I have in my Power BI report a gauge chart showing the production attainment. Let's say that today 26 march, attainment is 80%.
I would like to add a target on this gauge. A dynamic target that would show the month progression.
For today 26 march (I want the target to be 84% (as 26 march is 84% of whole march month having 31 days). We would visually see the attainment is under target.
If on my report, i select the previous month (2024 - february) of course I want to have 100% and if april selected, it would still be 0%.
What is the best way to do that ? i thought about an excel file for each year/month and a formula but it would mean to get inside the file everyday and update/save it for the formula to refresh. any other way with DAX ?
Hi yoa380 ,
Please try to create a Measure:
Measure % = VAR SelectedMonth = MONTH(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Date])) RETURN IF(SelectedMonth < MONTH(TODAY()), 1, IF(SelectedMonth > MONTH(TODAY()), 0, [Month Progression %]))You should have achieved your needs now:

Hello,
I got this measure for you :Target exercice for current month = DIVIDE( DAY(TODAY()),DAY(EOMONTH(TODAY(),0)) )
You can complete it with a IF statement that check if your selected month is before or after current month. If it's before, your target is 1, if it's after, your target is 0.
I can help you more if you give me a sample of your dataset without real value.Hi yoa380 ,
Thanks for the reply from Anonymous , please allow me to provide my insight:
Please create a measure:
Month Progression % = VAR StartMonth = DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY () ), 1 ) VAR EndMonth = eomonth ( tday (), 0 ) VAR DaysPassed = TODAY ()-StartMonth VAR TotalDays = EndMonth-StartMonth RETURN DIVIDE ( DaysPassed, TotalDays, 0 ) * 100Put "Month Progression %" into the Target value of the Gauge.
The page result is shown below:
The pbix file is attached.
If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me.
I would be grateful if you could provide me with sample data for testing, please remove any sensitive data in advance.

yoa380Hello, Thanks a lot for this measure. I have now succeeded to add it as target value. On my gauge it appears well. But if I change the month in filter on my page (for example February), it would still show 87% (I want 100%) and if I select April I want 0%. Any idea of how to add IF rules in the measure you created for me ?
I have attached a picture with my gauges and my filters (year / month) from a calendar table.
