Store Measure values in a table
Hi Everyone,
We have a report that is refreshed twice everyday, excluding weekends. A measure calculates the total invoice value for the previous day, but is not stored in any data source. I`d like to store this value every day such that only the previous day value is updated after every refresh & other dates/ values are not changed, thereby be able to calculate & display the month to date values.
I used the below. The calendar table has dates from 01-01-2020 till 12-31-2030 & the below populates the values on all dates with the current value. I`m not sure how to work with this one.
MTD = SUMMARIZE('Calendar','Calendar'[Date], "MTD", CALCULATE([TotalInvoiceValue],FILTER('Calendar','Calendar'[Date] = TODAY()))
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Anil

Last Day Non Continuous = CALCULATE([sales],filter(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date] =MAXX(FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[Date]<max('Date'[Date])),'Date'[Date])))
Day behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Day))
Diff COlumn = datediff(maxx(filter(Table,Table[Date]<earlier(Table[Date]) && Table[Numberf]= earlier(Table[Numberf]) ),Table[Date]) ,Table[Date],Day)This Day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]=max('Date'[Date])))
Last Day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]=max('Date'[Date])-1))
Last Day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), previousday('Date'[Date]))To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

Appreciate your Kudos.Thanks amitchandak . This is helpful. Apologies if it was not clear. I`ll try again.
The total invoice value is calculated everyday. Everyday its a new value & I want this to be stored in a table after the data refresh everyday like in the below table. Since these are not stored anywhere else, I was exploring a possibitlity to store in a table in the report.
Date TotalInvoiceValue 7/20/2020 100 7/21/2020 200 7/22/2020 150 7/23/2020 275 7/24/2020 125 7/25/2020 185 7/28/2020 195 7/29/2020 200 Once I`m able to store these, I`d use the MTD caluclations as you explained in the other posts. Hope this is clear now.
Regards,
Anil
