TotalMTD

Hi Guys,

 

I am having a strange behavior with TOTALMTD function. If I use date from calendar table it displays results on charts but not on card but If I use te column date from the same table the opposite happens. See the pictures below

 

This is with the date column [datecreatedon] from the same table notice the card at the right with 7935

 
 

This one uses datecretedon from the same tableThis one uses datecretedon from the same table

 

This one uses date from calendar table.

Use the date from calendar or Date table along with a month slicer..

 

 

I believe the card doesn't know which month to display..

Hi @VasTg ,

 

Thanks for your response. I worked around this issue using both measures one on each visualization. I am looking for an answer on why is this happening both ways (Card and Charts are affected depending on the table I use for date). I dont think the card doesnt know which month to display since is a MTD measure and it displays just fine with the date from the same table.

 

 Regards 

Reynaldo
