    Hi Fragmaticx ,

    This maybe occur because the FORMAT function is returning string, let try this upadated DAX:

    IsInSelectedPeriod = 
VAR SelectedYearMonth = SELECTEDVALUE('DateTable'[ShipPeriod])
VAR SelectedYear = YEAR(DATEVALUE(SelectedYearMonth & "01"))
VAR SelectedMonth = MONTH(DATEVALUE(SelectedYearMonth & "01"))
RETURN 
    IF(
        CALCULATE(
            COUNTROWS('BaseData'),
            FILTER(
                'BaseData',
                YEAR('BaseData'[ShipmentDateSales]) = SelectedYear
                && MONTH('BaseData'[ShipmentDateSales]) = SelectedMonth
                || YEAR('BaseData'[ShipmentDateCost]) = SelectedYear
                && MONTH('BaseData'[ShipmentDateCost]) = SelectedMonth
            )
        ) > 0,
        1,
        0
    )

Hi   Bibiano_Geraldo

I did what you suggested using this measure: 

IsInSelectedPeriod = 
VAR SelectedYearMonth = SELECTEDVALUE('DateTable'[ShipPeriod])
RETURN 
    IF(
        CALCULATE(
            COUNTROWS('BaseData'),
            FILTER(
                'BaseData',
                FORMAT('BaseData'[ShipmentDateSales], "YYYYMM") = SelectedYearMonth
                || FORMAT('BaseData'[ShipmentDateCost], "YYYYMM") = SelectedYearMonth
            )
        ) > 0,
        1,
        0
    )


If I join my date table on sales and filter october 24 i get a different amount than if i join the date table on my table and filter ostober using this logic.

 


Did i miss something?
