Hi,
I want to create a chart which shows the cumulative sales of an order table with the month on the axis and my year on the legend.
Currently, I have the following formula to calculate the cumulative
Cumulative sales = CALCULATE(SUM(orders[Sales Value]);FILTER(ALL('Date');'Date'[Date] <= MAX('Date'[Date])))But when I create the visual. I get this:
So it should reset every year but instead continues to count.
Any help?

Hi muren,
Modify your measure using DAX below and check if the issue can be resolved:
Cumulative sales = TOTALYTD ( SUM ( orders[Sales Value] ), Date[Date] )

Hi @Anonymous
