Hi all,
I need help with solving an error with calculating a cumulative. I am calculating a cumulative of backlog issues by Date.
My current measures are
Datekey[Date] >= DATE(2015,01,01)- I have added this above as i need to count the issues only from this date onwards
Now the problem am facing is that, when there is no issues opened on a day the backlog line breaks but the consequent cumulative is calculated correctly .i.e.
In the below graph on 10th the backlog is 274 , 12th 1issue was closed hence on 12th backlog is 274-1=273
On 13th 3 were open and 11 closed i.e. 273+3 -11 = 265. This value is correct but i need the line to be continous
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards
Hi @Anonymous,
In my test, the cumulative measure added to chart generated a continuous line without any break. Please provide some sample data in table 'GetIssues' so that I can try to reproduce.

Yuliana Gu
