Question:Hi everyone,I'm working on a Power BI project and need some help with displaying monthly sales and cumulative sales horizontally. Here's what I've done so far:I have a dataset with columns for Date and Sales.I've created Month and Year columns using DAX expressions:Month = FORMAT('YourTableName'[Date], "MMM")
Year = YEAR('YourTableName'[Date])I've also created measures for Month-wise Sales and Cumulative Sales:MonthWiseSales = SUM('YourTableName'[Sales])
CumulativeSales =
CALCULATE(
[MonthWiseSales],
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED('YourTableName'),
'YourTableName'[Date] <= MAX('YourTableName'[Date])
)
)I'm able to create a table visualization and display these measures, but I'm struggling to ensure the table shows the data horizontally (with months as columns).Can anyone guide me on how to achieve this in Power BI? Any tips or best practices would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!Feel free to adjust the details to better match your specific scenario.
