Hi All,
I am trying to calculate the spend running total for the past two Fiscal Years that start in July and end in June. I have created 2 columns to seperate FY19 spend and FY20 Spend. I have tried to use the DATESYTD function in dax but the column is blank seen below. Is there anyway to fix this or is there a better way to make the calculation? Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks
@Greg_Deckler I tried using the running total quick measure and I was able to get the running total that I wanted but it was summing it up by the calendar year not the fiscal year, is there a place that I can add the DATESYTD function in the measure that will change the order of the calculation? I have provided the text of the measure below.
@Anonymous Well, would need to understand the data and have sample data posted as text, but you can check these out:
