Monthly total by branch
Hi M Felix,
Yes, I created monthly calendar table and also added one column to actual sales to show monthly date to create relationship. (1 Jan 2018, 1 Feb 2018....)
Relationship is shown in different colour below.

I like to try DAX fomula below but still struggling how to express month. Could you please kindly help?
Monthly total =
VAR select_date =
MIN (Calender[Monthly_date])
VAR end_Date = ????
VAR Branch_select =
MAX (Branch[Branch])
RETURN
CALCULATE (
SUMX (Actual,[Sales]),
FILTER (
ALL (Actual),
Actual[Monthly_date] <= select_date
&& ??? <=end_Date
&& Actual[Branch] = Branch_select
)
)
All the best,
