KPI Matrix last date value

Hello Team, I have a quick query:

I've added KPI Matrix 3.1.1 in power bi dashboard, I'm adding a field from the date dimension Year(Quarter), with this I can see perfectly the sparkline, but when I try to see the value this value is the last date value found in the records.

As you can see the displayed value is the value for the last quarter in the year, I need to display the aggregate value.

 

Would you please recommend me any possible solution to display the correct value?

Thank You. I appreciate your help.

Hello,

 

You should understand that Power KPI Matrix is designed to show current value (the latest one) in comparison to planned value and sparklines help to see how this value was changing over time.

Therefore, if your dataset has only one record for a metric, there will not be a sparkline for this metric.

The average value is just a number, it doesn't have any dynamic.

So, it seems that you try to use the visual with inappropriate way.
