How to display total cost value based on two date values

[krishnavzm]

Hi, I'm new to Power BI. Trying to create a report based on the data available from 2020- 2023. Please find the beow sample data.

Item code	Dispatch date	Estimated Cost	Arrival Date	Actual Cost
I-001	7/1/2022	100	8/1/2022	200
I-002	7/4/2022	200	8/4/2022	300
I-003	8/23/2022	300	9/3/2022	400
I-004	8/24/2022	400	9/20/2022	500
I-005	9/1/2022	500	9/9/2022	600
I-006	9/2/2022	600	10/2/2022	700

From the above table , can you help me to generate chart on monthly basis. 1.Need to Display Total Actual cost / Monthly and 2. Total Estimated cost / Monthly . End User will select Year and Month as a filter option. Both 1 and 2 should be in same chart.

Thank you for your help

Hi, @krishnavzm 

You can try the following methods. Divide your sample data into 2 tables.

Table1:

Table2:

New Table:

Date = CALENDAR(MIN('Table 1'[Dispatch Date]),MAX('Table 2'[Arrival Date]))

Column:

Year = YEAR([Date])

Month = MONTH([Date])

Measure:

Total Actual cost / Monthly =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table 2'[Actual Cost] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'Date' ),
        [Year] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Date'[Year] )
            && [Month] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Date'[Month] )
    )
)

Total Estimated cost / Monthly =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table 1'[Estimated Cost] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'Date' ),
        [Year] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Date'[Year] )
            && [Month] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Date'[Month] )
    )
)

Result:

Is this the result you expect?
