Column Management

Good afternoon, I need to show in a table three columns with the total of the sales depending on the month and year you choose:

For example, if I chose the year 2020 and February should show:

Dec 19 January 20 February 20

xx 1500 700 1800

yy 700 100 0

If I chose 2020 and April you should show:

February 20 March 20 April 20

xx 1800 1700 2000

yy 0 100 800

Atte,

Victor Yupa

Hi @Anonymous 

 

in order to get achieve this behaviour, I think you need to create a new stand-alone date-table(make sure the new table is not connected to any of the other tables), and create a measure like this:

Filter Measure = 
VAR _selectedMonth =
    IF (
        HASONEVALUE ( 'Year-Month'[YearMonthNum] );
        CALCULATE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Year-Month'[YearMonthNum] ) );
        ( year(TODAY ()) - 2010 ) * 12
            + MONTH ( TODAY () )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        COUNTROWS (
            FILTER (
                dimDate;
                dimDate[YearMonthNum] >= _selectedMonth - 2
                    && dimDate[YearMonthNum] <= _selectedMonth
            )
        ) > 0;
        1;
        0
    )
 

Use this measure in the filter pane, and set it to filter on equal to 1.
