Finally, I have created a calculated column with RELATED to bring names and make it works. It's not an optimum solution but it is what's working... 😅

mlsx4 so you are purely filtering on month, not on year?

Hi parry2k

Yes I'm sure. There are no filters in my report except month
The only difference between your "mimic" report and mine is that I have also field center in the rows (Center and then consumption type). The problem is there for sure, because if I ommit the field it works.

P.S. I have been doing some tests. Center is a dimTable with the code and the name of the center. If I choose the value from there it doesn't work, but if I put the code taken by supplies table it works. However, I need the name. Relationship is 1 to many on the side of fact table. I don't really know what's happening. And what's more, if I reply every step in a new report, it works fine. The problem is that I cannot separate it from the big report.

It is really frustrating!!
