    Kolumam,

    Create a calendar table in Power BI Desktop following the guide in this blog, create relationship between the date field of Date table and COD field of Project table. Then change your DAX to the following, drag date field of Date table and the measure to your chart.

    Running Totals =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( Project[Operating Size] ),
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'Date' ), 'Date'[Date] <= MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ) )
)


    Regards,
    Lydia

Hi All, 

 

The issue with the below bar graph is that for the months with no COD it is not taking the same number and instead it is blank.

 

How do I fix this ?
