DAX measure to stop cumulative value after todays date not working

Hi there,

 

I wrote a DAX equation to display blank after today's date. But the chart is instead showing a flat line. 

 

Please help.

Deployed to Date = IF(
    MAX('Process Improvement Tracker'[Date]) > EOMONTH(TODAY(), 0),
    BLANK(),
'Process Improvement Tracker'[Cumulative FTE Deployed]
)

Hi, @Anonymous 

 

Please try the following methods.

Measure:

Cumulative FTE Deployed =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Process Improvement Tracker'[FTE Equivalent] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'Process Improvement Tracker' ),
        [Date] <= SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Process Improvement Tracker'[Date] )
    )
)
Deployed to Date =
IF (
    MAX ( 'Process Improvement Tracker'[Date] ) > EOMONTH ( TODAY (), 0 ),
    BLANK (),
    'Process Improvement Tracker'[Cumulative FTE Deployed]
)

@Syk Hi there, thank you for the support. The graph is still showing exactly the same after applying the change.

@Syk  Doesn't resolve as this only clears the months with no data. Because this is a combo chart, the data (from the bars) needs to remain. But the line measure I only need displaying until today()

Change the logic to see if the date is before today, return your value and leave the second half of the if statement blank.

Deployed to Date = IF(
    MAX('Process Improvement Tracker'[Date]) < EOMONTH(TODAY(), 0),
    'Process Improvement Tracker'[Cumulative FTE Deployed]
)
