Issue with Data Slicer

Hello,

 

i have a slicer for Month/year, when i filter this slicer i am expecting my data to pull for the appropriate month selected.  Some of my data are measures with a date calculation (the date table is unrelated).  The issue I am running into, is that my data is only pulling YTD, so when i filter for June the data looks good but when i filter for May, it still keeps my June data.  below is my measure, any ideas what i am doing wrong?  I am assuming it has to do with a relationship of the filter?

 

 

Stage 4a Actual test =
var maxmonth= LASTDATE('Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[Data as of])
return
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK('Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[Associate ID]), 'Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[In Talent for Job Family]="true", maxmonth)+0

    Please make following changes to your DAX code;

     

    Stage 4a Actual test =
    var maxmonth= MAX('Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[Data as of])
    return
    CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK('Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[Associate ID]), 'Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[In Talent for Job Family]="true", maxmonth)+0

      Hi mmills2018 !

       

      Lets try to simplify DAX a bit and use following;

       

      Stage 4a Actual test =
      var maxmonth= MAX('Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[Data as of])
      return
      CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK('Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[Associate ID]), FILTER('Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)', 'Consolidated Talent Snapshot (2)'[Data as of = maxmonth)) + 0

       

      I have removed the filter for Job Family, please check if the above DAX works, we can append that filter back again.

       

      Regards,

      Hasham
