Hi, floppy_fish 

Thank you for sharing the data.

I am not sure if I understood your question correctly. The first question was comparing the first 12 months' cumulative values of each item that has a different starting date.

I think your sample has the same starting date, and I am not sure if I needed to write measures to consider the different starting dates.

I just created a cumulate sum line chart, and please have a look whether it is what you are looking for.

Hey Jihwan_Kim 

 

Thanks for replying so fast ! 

 

Yes it's my mistake... Please find below an update of the file with correcting value :

What I need is : 

 

- Look All Sell-In by UPC since their date of launch for the next 12 Months. 

- All UPC have a different launch date. 

- I need to take the launch date in an other tab to do it ! 

 

Sorry if it was not clear... 

 

I guess I need a formula with a MIN or EARLIER (but this one I don't know how to use it correctly)... 

 

Thanks again for your help !!!

    Hi, floppy_fish 

    Please check the below picture and the link down below.

    One additional calculated column has been created in BoostSellIn table.

    I think this column is the critical column in this case, because this column is used as X-Axis in the line chart.

      Hi Jihwan_Kim !

       

      I don't know how to thank you, but it's finaly working !! 

       

      You can't imagine how many happiest person you made with your precious help ! 

       

      In the same time you learn me a lot... I never use "EARLIER" and "DATEDIFF", and try to understand their specific use, compare to MIN by exemple... 

       

      Again, thank you so much for offering your help ! 

       

      I wish you all the best 🙂
