Hi mikaro,
If you are finding cummulative value, it should be:
cumulative qty = CALCULATE( SUM( Transactions[value] ), filter( ALL( Dates[Date]),Dates[Date] <=MAX(Dates[Date]) && year(Dates[Date])= year(MAX(Dates[Date])) ))and mapping relationship when using dates table
if it's not your expectation, hope you describe your expectation resuslt again so i could quickly figure out solution.
Thanks tringuyenminh92 i did very similar solution to this but i ran into a new problem with the measure below:
cumulative qty = CALCULATE(
SUM(
Transactions[value]
);
filter(
ALL(
Dates[date]);Dates[date] <= * last date here *)
)For example if i type in Date(2016,3,31) to the * last date here * I get the result that that looking for, but if I get that date from for intance from a slicer (season from datetable e.g. 03-16 or full date 31.3.2016) and try to insert that to the * last date here * it gives me wrong outcome. For date from slicer i've tried DATE- and DATEVALUE- functions and neither of them have worked. I get the value from slicer with this measure:
choice =
CONCATENATEX (
VALUES ( Dates[Date] );
Dates[Date];
)One example of the final (not working correctly atm) measure would then be:
cumulative qty = CALCULATE(
SUM(
Transaction[value]
);
filter(
ALL(
Dates[Date]);Dates[Date] <= DATE(YEAR([choice];MONTH([choice];DAY([choice])
)
Ill try to further elaborate what i im trying to achieve with this simple example:
Date value
1.1.2016 1000
2.1.2016 -500
1.2.2016 700
3.2.2016 -200
Now when i would select 3.2.2016 i should get 1000 and when i would select 2.1.2016 I should get 500. Hopefully this clarified this a bit :)
This logic works fine if I type in the date but every time I try to use a value that is from slicer I get wrong outcome. Am i missing something with DATE-functions or am I trying to do this the wrong way?
Hi mikaro,
The date field in slicer is from Dates table or from your fact table? Did you create calculated measure or column?

Hi tringuyenminh92!
Date field in slicer is from Dates table and all functions in my previous post are calculated measures. For instance if i pick 31.3.2016 from slicer my calculated measure "choice" equals to 31.3.2016. The only calculated column in my project atm is season that is located in the Dates table (31.3.2016 -> 03-16).
Thanks in advance for helping me out!

Hi mikaro,
Maybe there are something wrong in filter
Dates[Date]);Dates[Date] <= DATE(YEAR([choice];MONTH([choice];DAY([choice])
Could you please share pbix and sample data so i could analyze it? And i'm not sure that i understand your expectation in choosing specific date. Could you explain it again?

Hi tringuyenminh92,
Here are the files ppix and transactions.
I added some examples and text boxes that will hopefully explain and clarify this problem even more. If they dont help please let me know and i'll try to explain again.
Thanks!
