Hi everyone,
I'm trying to create line chart with two lines one for current data and one line for last year data. I have measures worked out and aswell date table. Date table is created using startdate and enddate from column of queried from sql server, data is refresed everyweek in sql server. Now back to the line chart, im trying to create line chart that will show all the months from 2022 and line representing current yearr data and as well last year data. I assume that future dates in datetable are necessary, but if you guys have any idea feel free to write. Please take a look on low quality picture below

Hi @Chetcork
Your assumption is correct that future dates in datetable are necessary. At least the datetable should have dates till the end of 2022. Then you can use measures like below and put them into the line chart.
This Year = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),'Date'[Year]=2022)Last Year = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),'Date'[Year]=2021)
