Removing Filter Context

Hi,

I really need help with, what I think is a DAX issue.

I have on my report page, two tables. Each table displays my companies top 25 energy-using facilities and their respective correlation cofficients x=date and y= SEC (kWh/ML) - SEC is a measure. 

The page has one filter, which is Year/Month, which is a calculated column - FORMAT('Calendar'[Date], "YYYY-MM")

 

The first table dynamically displays the correlation by the chosen Year/Month (so, taking into account only the SEC values for that given Year/Month) and the second table calculates the correlation by the chosen Year/Month, but also takes into account the previous two months. This is essentially a rolling 3-months. I have the correlation measure providing the correct output for the second table, but where I become unstuck, is the custom tooltip for the second table. 

I have a custom tooltip page simply displaying SEC(kWh/ML) in the y-axis and the Date in the x-axis. This isn't a problem for the first table as it only shows the correlation by month, but for the second table I need the custom tooltip line chart to show 3-months (current Year/Month selection and two months prior).

I am trying to drive both tables by the same slicer (Year/Month), despite having two different granularities, which I think is causing the issue. The slicer is imposing the 1-month view on the 3-monthly set up of the second table. I have tried all sorts of combinations to remove the filter context, so the custom tooltip line chart will display the current Year/Month and the two previous months, but with no success. I'm hoping some clever person can help resolve this.

Many thanks

Hi, 

Sorry for delayed reply. Here is the measure, I'm using this measure in the y-axis of the custom tooltip and date from my calendar table in the x-axis

SEC 3-Month Rolling =
VAR SelectedMonthYear = SELECTEDVALUE('Calendar'[MonthYear])
VAR SelectedYear = VALUE(LEFT(SelectedMonthYear, 4))
VAR SelectedMonth = VALUE(RIGHT(SelectedMonthYear, 2))
VAR CurrentDate = DATE(SelectedYear, SelectedMonth, 1)

-- Calculate start and end dates for the 3-month period
VAR EndDate = EOMONTH(CurrentDate, 0)
VAR StartDate = EOMONTH(CurrentDate, -2) + 1

-- Calculate SEC (kWh/ML) for the date range
RETURN
CALCULATE(
[SEC (kWh/ML)], -- Use the existing measure
REMOVEFILTERS('Calendar'[MonthYear]), -- Remove the MonthYear filter context
DATESBETWEEN(
'Calendar'[Date],
StartDate,
EndDate
)
)

What you can see in the image (redacted), is a table with 25 facility names and their respective correlation coefficients based on Year-Month slicer (visible). The custom tooltip works perfectly in the context of the 1-month view, as its being governed by the YearMonth slicer. However, I have a toggle (also visible) where I switch a second table that shows the same 25 facilities but, this time with correlation coefficients for the 3-months (the chosen YearMonth and 2 months prior). Despite, what I have tried, I can't seem to show 3-months of data in the custom tooltip. You can clearly see the line is flat, as the measure isn't working. In a previous iteration of the report, I had 2 separate slicers, each controlling their respective table, but I have been asked by a stakeholder specifically to have only 1 slicer on the page. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanksmicrosoft_forum_help_redacted.jpg

Hey, could you please, send the graph (you copy paste in two seconds your screen here) and your Dax measure? I could  say that it could  be usefull to use removefillter() in your calculate() but if I don't see your measure this doesn't help.
