Hi GaRaGe,
First, you should create a calculated column to get a number format month. If we use the Jan, Feb, Mar and so on. Month will order by alphabet.Month! = SWITCH(Test[Month],"Jan",1,"Feb",2,"Mar",3,"Apr",4,"May",5,"Jun",6,"Jul",7,"Aug",8,"Sep",9,"Oct",10,"Nov",11,12)
Then create two measure for cumulative spend over month.Target = CALCULATE(SUM(Test[Spend]),FILTER(ALL(Test),Test[Month!]<=MAX(Test[Month!])&&Test[Metric]="Target")) Actual = CALCULATE(SUM(Test[Spend]),FILTER(ALL(Test),Test[Month!]<=MAX(Test[Month!])&&Test[Metric]="Actual"))
Finally, create a line chart, select the [month!] field as axis, the two measures as value level.
Please feel free to ask if you any issue.
Best Regards,
