Hello,

As long as you have a unique ID per enrolment and the enrolment date column, marked as data type 'date' and in a relationship with your date table, it should be straightforward to aggregate your enrolments as a measure in DAX;

 

                 Number of enrolments = DISTINCTCOUNTNOBLANK(Table[EnrolmentID]),
                 

 

Then with your date hierarchy - I would drag Year, then month, then date of your date table into the X axis of a line chart so that you can toggle up to Year to compare years. Drag Number of enrolments into the Y axis.

Thank you.

I did as he told me, but my problem persists.

When graphing, the gross and non-accumulated valoes appear as I need.

Also, I need the lines from both years to appear on the same chart.
