Hey PBI Experts,
I would like to show a bar and line graph which has these 3 components: Closed tasks (as a bar), open tasks (as a bar), backlog (as a line), the x axis is year-month (a calculated column).
Where open tasks are the tasks that were opened in this specific month or which were opened but still not closed in this specific month and the backlog is the difference of tickets that were closed this month- the tasks that were opened or are still open during this month.
I am having trouble in calculating the open tasks and backlog and would really appreciate if anyone can help with this. my dataset has a 'task number', 'opened date' and 'closed date'. I have included my dataset sample here:
Number Opened Date Closed Date
