Cumulative data and Filter

[Anonymous]

Hi Everyone!

I want to combine cumulative data and a filter of month in a report so that I could show in a graph or table the sum of amount till the month that I filtered.

I mean, if I filter by May I don´t want to see only May, I want to show January, February and May.

There is any way?

Thanks!

With the slicer visual, you cannot do it now. There is no way to create a dynamic month column/table according to your selection in the slicer.

However, you can try to use the Timeline visual. Just drag the progress bar to include January to May.

I create a calendar table and a cumulative measure with following formulas. And create relationship between Calendar and Table1 with Date key.

Calendar =
CALENDAR ( "1/1/2016", "12/31/2016" )

Cumulative = 
IF (
    SUM ( Table1[Number] ) <> BLANK (),
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[Number] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Calendar' ), 'Calendar'[Date] <= MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) )
    )
)

Best Regards,

It isn't the solution that I expect but It's an amazing alternative.

Thanks!
