All,
I am showing a running total of counts for the past 2 years. The chart is getting too wide for my customer. I need to keep the totals based on the entire time period. But I would like to only show the last 12 months. The X-axis has a Start and End Date but I don't see a way to make it dynamic based on my live data. I could hard code the dates but then I would have to change it manually each month as I am in the screen shot below.
Any ideas? Or different charts I should use?
I am using the latest PBIRS (on premises).
Thanks in advance, Scott

Hi @wskallmeyer
You may create a measure like below and use it in visual level filter and set it =1.
Last 12 Month =
VAR EndThisMonth =
DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY () ), 31 )
VAR Enddate_LastMonth =
EDATE ( EndThisMonth, -1 )
RETURN
IF (
MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ) <= Enddate_LastMonth
&& MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ) > EDATE ( EndThisMonth, -13 ),
1
)
