Hi,
My date is in 2 tables as:
TABLE1:
STATE MONTH ACTUAL
NJ APR 2
NY APR 4
KY APR 3
NJ MAY 1
NY MAY 2
KY MAY 1
NJ APR 2
NY APR 2
KY APR 2
TABLE2:
MONTH TARGET
APR 10
MAY 12
JUN 15
WHEN I JOIN 2 TABLES :
MONTH ACTUAL TARGET
APR 9 10
MAY 4 12
JUN 6 15
BUT WHEN I CHANGE ABOVE TABLE TO LINE AND CLUSTER GRAPH. TARGET COLUMN IS ASKING FOR AGGREGATION.
MONTH ACTUAL TARGET
APR 9 37
MAY 4 37
JUN 6 37
HOW CAN I JOIN MY FIRST 2 TABLES TO GET TABLE3 AS RESULT.

Hi @revansh,
In your scenario, you needn't to join those two tables. You can just create a relationship between those two tables based on Month, then you can drag the Month from Table2 to x-axis of the chart, Actual and Target with Sum aggregate function as chart values.
For details, you can download attached pbix file to have a look.

Hi @revansh,
This should be a different issue from the original one, as your first post doesn't mention the future date column.
So I think the sample data should be changed now. Please share the new sample data and show us the example to clarify the issue.
Best Regards,
Qiuyun Yu
Hi @revansh,
If the original issue is fixed now, would you please close this thread?
Regarding your second issue, please create a new thread and share corresponding data and expected results.
Best Regards,
Qiuyun Yu
I would use a slicer to filter to actual months only
