Hi friends,
I'm trying to calculate a running total based on the slicer selection for the date range. For some reason every time I put in the start date, the running total stops working. I think I'm really close with the DAX code below but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
Total Spent Running Total =
VAR MinDate = CALCULATE(MIN(CalendearDates[Dates]),ALLSELECTED(CalendarDates[Dates]))
VAR MaxDate = CALCULATE(MAX(CalendarDates[Dates]),ALLSELECTED(CalendarDates[Dates]))
VAR DatesToUse =
DATESBETWEEN(
CalendarDates[Dates],
MinDate,
MaxDate)
VAR Result = CALCULATE([Total Spent],DatesToUse)
RETURN Result
Hi,
I am not sure how your calendar table is structured, but please try something like below whether it works.
Total Spent Running Total =
VAR _year =
MAX ( CalendarDates[FiscalYear] )
VAR _fyadjust =
MAX ( CalendarDates[FiscalYearAdjusted] )
VAR MinDate =
CALCULATE ( MIN ( CalendearDates[Dates] ), ALLSELECTED ( CalendarDates ) )
VAR MaxDate =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( CalendarDates[Dates] ),
FILTER (
ALLSELECTED ( CalendarDates ),
CalendarDates[Year] = _year
&& CalendarDates[FiscalYearAdjusted] = _fyadjust
)
)
VAR DatesToUse =
FILTER (
ALL ( CalendarDates ),
CalendarDates[Dates] >= MinDate
&& CalendarDates[Dates] <= MaxDate
)
VAR Result =
CALCULATE ( [Total Spent], DatesToUse )
RETURN
Result
Hello,
Thanks for your response. My calendar is automated in Power Query and it just adds a day every day on the CalendarDates[Dates] column in the format "yyyy-MM-dd". I revised the formula below but still no luck. Any thoughts?
