Abnormal number display on bar chart

Dear Team,

 

I have computed DAX SAMPERIODLASTYEAR (

CALCULATE(sum(SaleOrderSummary[SaleQtyHL]),SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]))). What I faced the abnormal was dispayed on barchart. I would like to seek team supporting to solve this abnormal displaying on bar chart.

@Anonymous , Make sure measure is like

 

CALCULATE(sum(SaleOrderSummary[SaleQtyHL]),SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]))

 

where date table is marked as date table and month on axis is coming from date table

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.

@Anonymous , From measure tools, Make sure the number format and type is decimal and you have selected 2/3 decimal place as required
