Count Completion Item Per Month

I have created a calendar auto table and trying to do a stacked chart to show open vs closed items per month. I could not return the count completed item per month? 

 

CountClosedItemPerMonth =
VAR selectedDate = MAX('Date'[Date])

RETURN

SUMX([Table],
VAR ItemEndDate = [Completion Date]

RETURN IF(ItemEndDate >= selectedDate,1,0)
)

I'm not sure what you mean by "high value" - are you possibly saying you do not want to count rows with no completion date? If so you could just add this condition to the calculate expression.

 

eg.

 

CountClosedItemPerMonth = 
  CALCULATE(countrows(TABLE),
  NOT( ISBLANK( TABLE[Completion Date] ) )
  USERELATIONSHIP(TABLE[Completion Date],'Date'[Date])
)

So the expression you have used will count rows that are on or after the last day of the selected period. To count rows with a closed date in the selected month you would normally either create a relationship to the closed date, then you could use a simple countrows expression. Or you could do something like the following pattern

 

CountClosedItemPerMonth =
VAR startOfPeriod = MIN('Date'[Date])
VAR endOfPeriod
 = MAX('Date'[Date])
RETURN
CALCULATE( COUNTROWS('Table'),
    'table'[Completion Date] >= startOfPeriod,
    'table'[Completion Date] <= endOfPeriod
)

I'm using the following formula:

CountClosedItemPerMonth = CALCULATE(countrows(TABLE),USERELATIONSHIP(TABLE[Completion Date],'Date'[Date]))
