MTD and QTD not working

In my date field in fact table I have data for end of all month. eg 31st Jan, 29th feb 2020, etc. Now upon selection of any date I need to calculate YTD QTD and MTD. I have data for 1 year i e. 2020. YTD expression is working fine. But MTD and QTD is showing blank result.

 

Expression I am using

 

TotalQTD(Sum(Values), Date, Filter(Table name, Date< = vCurDate)

vCurDate= selected input date.

 

TotalMTD(Sum(Values), Date, Filter(Table name, Date< = vCurDate)

 

MTD and QTD expression is not working.

So generally you need a separate date table for time intelligence functions to operate correctly.

 

See if my Time Intelligence the Hard Way provides a different way of accomplishing what you are going for.
