Dynamic Burndown/Rundown DAX

Hi All,

 

I am trying to build a dynamic (able to filter by other data in the sheet) burndown chart with a "Plan" line and an "Actual" line. Here is a sample of my data:

Systemization - Subsystem IDTableau Planned DateSubmitted Datetest
U-UST001-213-0112/1/20201/8/20211
U-UST002-206-019/1/20211/8/20211
U-UST003-826-0111/1/20201/7/20211
U-UAR201-781-0112/1/2020 0
U-UAU002-781-0112/1/2020 0

 

Here is my measure for the "Plan" line - which seems to work just fine.

 

Baseline Profile = 
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( 'Tableau MC Skyline'[Systemization - Subsystem ID] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLSELECTED ('MC Skyline'),
        'GCGV Tableau MC Skyline'[Tableau Planned Date] >= MAX ( 'Tableau MC Skyline'[Tableau Planned Date] )
    )
)

 

As you can see, the baseline starts properly, but my actual line does not start from the same point, because i am using my test values. Below is a sample of my current chart as well as my DAX for the actual line. How do i get the actual to start at the top near baseline and have the delta at the bottom? Also, is there a way to make the actual line visually stop at today's date?

Actual = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Tableau MC Skyline'[test]),
    FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED('Tableau MC Skyline'),
        'Tableau MC Skyline'[Tableau Planned Date] >= MAX ('Tableau MC Skyline'[Tableau Planned Date])
    )

 

 

Any help is appreciated.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

To stop at today's date,you could modify your  "filter" part as below:

FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED('Tableau MC Skyline'),
        'Tableau MC Skyline'[Tableau Planned Date] >= MAX ('Tableau MC Skyline'[Tableau Planned Date])&&'Tableau MC Skyline'[Tableau Planned Date]<=TODAY()
    )

The start point of the actual line depends on the data it gets,if possible,could you provide some sample data for test?

 

Best Regards,
Kelly
