Dynamic forecast from actuals and budget

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to create a dynamic forecast based off budget and actuals.

The table below shows what I hope to achieve in the column on the right;

dec           220.000                                                 270.000

 

Budgetdiff is AmountRevenue - BudgetRevenue

As shown, the forecast should be budget + SUM(budgetdiff)

The problem is, AmountRevenue, Budget and BudgetDiff are all measures, and when I try to create my forecast measure, the result always adds the rows by month instead of the TOTAL sum of BudgetDif for the selected year.

I've tried this: 

Measure = [Budget]  + CALCULATE([BudgetDif], ALL(dimdate[MonthName]), FILTER(dimdate, dimdate[Year]))
but it doesn't work.
 
If anyone has an idea, it would be greatly appreciated, I've been stuck on this for days now!
Thanks 🙂

Hi @amitchandak ,

 

Your formula helped me get the right results! Thank you so much!

I had to change your formula a little bit into

Forecast = Budget + CALCULATE(SUMX(VALUES(dimdate[Month]), not(isblank([Revenue])), ALLEXCEPT(dimdate, dimdate[year]))
