Future Projections on Subscriptions

I am trying to create a chart that shows future projections based on subscriptions. Each customer will have a subscription fee and an expiration year. For example, Customer A has a subscription fee of $10 and their subscription term ends in 2020. Customer B pays $20 and their subscription ends in 2021. How could future values be added to an existing graph so that 2019 would show 10+20 and then 2020 would show 20? Essentially, a graph already exists showing amount collected per year, but we want to add future to this graph. Is there an easy way to do this?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Although you didn't detailed the format of your data I assume the following two tables:

 

Subscriptions:

 

Customer Subscription Value End of Subscription Start of Subscription
A 10 2020 2015
B 20 2021 2018

 

Years:

 

Year
2015
2016
2017
2018
2019
2020
2021
2022

 

I now have added the following measure:

Subscription calculation =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Subscription'[Subscription Value] );
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'Subscription'[End of Subscription]; Subscription[Start of Subscrition] );
        'Subscription'[Start of Subscrition] <= MAX ( Years[Year] )
            && 'Subscription'[End of Subscription] >= MAX ( Years[Year] )
    )
)

 

Result is below (X-axis is the column on the Year table):

 

Forecasting.pngAs you can see until 2018 the values is only subscription A then both and on 2021 only B.

 

The year column cvan be adjusted to a date column if needed.
