Empty result previousmonth

Hi all,

 

I'm using the following measure in my report.

I want to summarize the price of the previous month. The result stays empty.  

 

PriceLastMonth = CALCULATE (
sum('StoredProcedure'[Price]);
FILTER (
ALL ('StoredProcedure');'StoredProcedure'[FirstDayOfMonth] = PREVIOUSMONTH('Date'[Date])
)
)

 

Notes:

'Date'[Date] is a single value from a created timetable. 

 

part of the datamodel looks like this:

 

FirstDayOfMonthCustomerIdPriceDate
2018-02-01 00:00:00.00011478802018-02-01 00:00:00.000
2018-02-01 00:00:00.000114781292018-02-01 00:00:00.000

2018-03-01 00:00:00.000114781282018-03-01 00:00:00.000

 

Anyone an idea of what i'm doing wrong?

If you remove the non-related "Date" field from the table, does it show up?

Please try this

 

PriceLastMonth = CALCULATE (
     sum('StoredProcedure'[Price]);
     PREVIOUSMONTH('StoredProcedure'[Date])  //<-- This should be the date column that has a relationship to the Date table
)

Hope that helps,

David

Hi David, thnx for your reply. It didn't work. 

Result is the same, previous month stays empty. 

If you remove the non-related "Date" field from the table, does it show up?

Thanks David! The date field in the grid was the issue.

It works now.
