Monthly Goals gets aggregated

Hey, guys, 

 

I am trying to create a graph comparing actual monthly revenue, to the planned goals. 

The Revenue is a calculate measure - Total ex revenue wich is the sum of the Expected revenue column. 

 

And the Goals added myself and it looks like this:

I conected them via calendar Month of year column:

When I compare Total Ex revenue and the Goals in a table it's all good:

But when I do it in a graph, Power Bi aggregates the goal column, even though I have chosen the option Don't summarise as default:

My question is one of two: 

 

1. How do I combine these two measures in one graph? 

or

2. Should I go another way with goals to acctuals comparison? 

 

Keep it as simple as possible folks 🙂

Hi @Almantas32 ,

 

We can try to create a measure to show the goal of each month in charts:

 

Monthly Goal Measure =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Goals Table'[Monthly Goals] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLSELECTED ( 'Goals Table' ),
        [Month Number]
            IN FILTERS ( 'Calendar Ex Closing'[MonthOfYear] )
    )
)


If it doesn't meet your requirement, Could you please show the relationship between the 'Goals Table' and the table which contain column used in the x-axis Field?


Best regards,

Hi @Almantas32 

 

Most probably its the fact that Year filter is not propagating your budget table.

Use the pattern in the article: link below - to set your budget table correctly.
