Hi All
I'm messing around with calculation groups and found something weird happening when I filter my dimension.
So I have calculation that do YTD, MTD, WTD etc and they all work fine. See below, I've changed my measure to return 1 if its not blank and 0 if it is for obvious reasons
Unfiltered
You can see some codes have a 1 others a 0 and the total is 1 (with real numbers this is accurate)
If I remove any code (blank in this case) everything is 0 except for the total
Filtered
MTD and the other do not have this problem. DAX below
YTD - (Not working)
VAR Year = CALCULATE( SELECTEDVALUE( Dates[Year] ), Dates[IsTodayFlag] = TRUE() )
VAR ReturnValue = CALCULATE( SELECTEDMEASURE(), Dates[Year] = Year, Dates[Is Part Of Current Year?] = TRUE() )
RETURN
IF( ReturnValue = BLANK(), 0, 1 )
MTD - (Working)
VAR Year = CALCULATE( SELECTEDVALUE( Dates[Year] ), Dates[IsTodayFlag] = TRUE() )
VAR CDate = CALCULATE( SELECTEDVALUE( Dates[Date]) , Dates[IsTodayFlag] = TRUE() )
VAR CMonth = CALCULATE( SELECTEDVALUE( Dates[Month] ), Dates[Date] = CDate )
VAR ReturnValue = CALCULATE( SELECTEDMEASURE(), Dates[Year] = Year, Dates[Month] = CMonth, Dates[Is Part Of Current Year?] = TRUE() )
RETURN
IF( ReturnValue = BLANK(), 0, 1 )
I know the measures can be written better, i.e. using DATESYTD etc, but like I said, im just playing at the moment
Hi @MCornish ,
I don't reproduct your problem, could you please share your PBIX file that doesn't contain sensitive data?
Best Regards,

@MCornish , these are various version without TI
This Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])))
Last Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1))
diff % = divide([This Year]-[Last Year ],[Last Year ])
Year Rank = RANKX(all('Date'),'Date'[Year Start date],,ASC,Dense)
This Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year Rank]=max('Date'[Year Rank])))
Last Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year Rank]=max('Date'[Year Rank])-1))
Day of Year =datediff([Year Start date] , [Date],Day) +1
YTD= CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year Rank]=max('Date'[Year Rank]) && 'Date'[Day of Year] <= Max('Date'[Day of Year]) ))
LYTD = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year Rank]=max('Date'[Year Rank])-1 && 'Date'[Day of Year] <= Max('Date'[Day of Year])))
YTD= CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year]) && 'Date'[Month] <= Max('Date'[Month]) ))
LYTD = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1 && 'Date'[Month] <= Max('Date'[Month])))
YTD= CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year]) && 'Date'[Qtr] <= Max('Date'[Qtr]) ))
LYTD = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1 && 'Date'[Qtr] <= Max('Date'[Qtr])))
Year Week = [Year]*100 +[Week]
YTD= CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year]) && 'Date'[Week] <= Max('Date'[Week]) ))
LYTD = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1 && 'Date'[Week] <= Max('Date'[Week])))
You can check , if these can help
