MTD calculation on a Divide measure

Hi All,

 

I'm trying to calculate the MTD in my case for CPA however the values are not adding through the dates. 
CPA is calculated as = Divide([Money Spent], [No of customers])

My calculation for CPA MTD is = TOTALMTD([CPA],DateTable[Date])

@Anonymous , That will give ration will not add the daily ratio.

 

Try a measure like

CPA MTD is = calculate(sumx(values(DateTable[Date]), [CPA]),datesmtd(DateTable[Date]))

 

Make sure DateTable is marked as date table

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Try this: 
CPA MTD  = TOTALMTD([CPA],DATESMTD(DateTable[Date]))

Mark this as a solution, if I answered your question. Kudos are always appreciated.

Thanks
