Bar Chart show data from current date each month

Hi Anonymous
If I am understanding your requirement, you should be able to take the "Day" from the Date Hierarchy and add that as a Slicer so that you can select the Day of each Month and compare only the Day that you want (i.e. first, second, third, fourth, etc., etc)...
Hope this helps 🙂

Hi TheoC, thank you for your reply.
This is exactly what I need, I didn't know I could use Day from hierarchy, still need to learn more about PBI. Anyways, if your way is using a filter, how to make it automatically following the latest date of the current month in my data? I'm still searching for how to make the formula for it.
But totally, your solution makes me easier to go to the next step.- TheoC4 years agoCommunity Champion
Anonymous yeah, Power BI is pretty powerful and is far more simple to use than we often think.
My sincere apologies, however, I am just trying to get a better understanding of what you are wanting to achieve. Are you aiming to return the most current day such as "TodaysDay = DAY ( TODAY () )" or are you aiming to return the most recent Date in all of your Date column such as "LastDate = LASTDATE ( 'Table'[Date] )" or possibly the Day of the most recent date such as "Most Recent LastDate = DAY ( LASTDATE ('Table'[Date] ) )"?
If the above is not what you were hoping for, please let me know and I will do my best to help out 🙂

TheoC maybe the "Most Recent LastDate = DAY ( LASTDATE ('Table'[Date] ) )", from that formula will return the date number from my date, right? I guess that could work to automatically filter the chart based on the recent last date from my data and applied it to each month in the chart.
I'm sorry if my explanation is quite confusing, hard for me to put it in words.
