Comparison Actual Revenue vs. Past Revenue

[Anonymous]

Hi there!

I generated a comparison between the actual revenue and past revenue of the same month, but 1yr before and, though the total is showing, the monthly analysis is not. Does anyone have an idea what i'm doing wrong?

Did you mark your date table as a date table? I can tell by this icon below that you still have automatic date time intelligence on. That should be off in the options, and right-click on your date table and "Mark as Date Table."

Then do you have your date table related to the right date in your sales table? You can see other requirements for the DATEADD() function here.

Hi!

Tks for the quick help! Well, gotta say that your suggestion itself didn't really change the result. On the other hand though, you brough up the Close Date field and it actually helped me review my Primary and Foreign Key relations, and with that (and selecting the right columns) I got the numbers right! So thanks for, in a way, leading the solution 😃
