Hello community! I am a beginner in Power BI trying to work on some projects on my own.
I ask for a little patience and also apologize if my question is very basic. I've tried looking up videos but haven't been able to solve it yet.
I am developing a map where the points sum up a number (sales made). One of the most important filters for the project is to filter by month and day. However, when selecting 2 different months, the visual shows 2 overlapping points with the sales for each month (separately). I need the visual to show the cumulative sum of the selected months, meaning it should display a single total at each point.
I have attached images to facilitate understanding.
Thank you!

Hi @Lucasecg ,
Filters are meant to filter data and don't have this ability to aggregate data, so you may need to create a metric or calculated column implementation. For example, the following expression:
Cumulative Sales =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( YourTableName[SalesColumn] ),
FILTER (
ALLSELECTED ( YourTableName[DateColumn] ),
YourTableName[DateColumn] <= MAX ( YourTableName[DateColumn] )
)
)
Hope it helps!
