Need Help: Monthly Target Line for Line and Cluster Column Chart

I am struggling to have my Monthly Target line show properly on a Line and Cluster column chart. It will only show as a flat line, instead of what I am trying to get which is monthly target line that we can track against. Any help would appreciated.

 

I tried this Dax code with no luck. 

NY Monthly Targets = CALCULATE(SUM('NY Monthly Target'[Planned Target]),FILTER('Calendar','Calendar'[Date].[Month]))

Hi @bodorsey11 ,

 

Please try this formula:

NY Monthly Targets =
CALCULATE (
    MAX ( 'NY Monthly Target'[Planned Target] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLSELECTED ( 'NY Monthly Target' ),
        'NY Monthly Target'[Date].[Month] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Calendar'[Date].[Month] )
    )
)

 

Best Regards,

Jay

@bodorsey11 , if the target table is joined with calendar table then simply this should work

 

SUM('NY Monthly Target'[Planned Target])

 

In case you only have month, the create date using the month year and join both your data and target with a common date table
