Relationship between Calendar Dimension and Facts Table
twister8889 - It doesn't really work that way. You could create a new date table from your dates in Fact table like this:
Calendar 2 = CALENDAR(MIN('Fact'[Date]),MAX('Fact'[Date]))- twister88896 years ago

twister8889 - What is your concern with having a date table with more dates than in your fact table? This is an extremely common scenario.

Hello,
I'm sorry for the delay, my concern is when the user filters the date or when I use the month in the chart as a dimension, I don't want to show all dates from the calendar dimension, I would like to show only the dates existing in the facts tables in the filter and the charts as a dimension
After I did the link between the Fact and calendar table, I imagine using the field Column of dcalendar table as a dimension in my charts and filters correct? However, now I have the wrong result because it is showing dates that I don't have in my fact table.
I already did this, I created a column called Column, to link with the Month field in Fact Table. The Column has the same format, 01/MM/YYYY
