Create line chart that counts dates from two columns in data set and displays count by date

[vincenardo]

In my data set, I have two columns with dates. DteOnHold & DteOffHold

I want to create a line chart that counts the the number of dates for each column (DteOnHold & DateOffHold) by day.

I created a Stacked Area Chart and placed the DteOnHold and DteOffHold in the AXIS and Count of DteOnHold & Count DteOffHold in the Values - but this is not giving the correct results in the line chart.

Any suggestions?

Hi, @vincenardo ;

You could create two measures as follows:

count of DteOnHold = CALCULATE(COUNT([DteOnHold]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),[DteOnHold]=MAX('Calendar Relative'[Date])))

count of DteOnHold = CALCULATE(COUNT([DteOnHold]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),[DteOnHold]=MAX('Calendar Relative'[Date])))

In addition , two tables don't have relationship.

The final output is shown below:

If not right ,can you share the output and more details  you want to achieve?

For additional filtering, how can I modify the COUNT formulas so that I can use a slicer to filter the chart based on the Task Name?

Hi, @vincenardo ;

If you have slicer, you could modify it.

count of DteOnHold = CALCULATE(COUNT([DteOnHold]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),[DteOnHold]=MAX('Calendar Relative'[Date])))

change ALL() to ALLSELECTED().

@vincenardo , You can create a common date table, Join both dates with date of date table . One join will be inactive, that can be activated using userelationship

Thanks @amitchandak -- I need some additional help, I am still a bit confused.

I created a date table using this formula -

Calendar Relative = CALENDAR(

TODAY()-365,

TODAY()+10

Linked the DteOffHold to the Date in 'Calendar Relative' table (Made it active) and linked the DteOnHold to the same table.

I am confused on what calculations I need to create next.

Thanks!
