TOTALYTD not summing values
Hello I have been using Dax formulas to make Measures in a Power Pivot, the data is connected using Power Query then linked using Data Model in Excel. I cannot work out why TOTALYTD measures are not working, previously the exact same format has worked. I have checked data types and manually checked the dates but each line is showing its distinct value rather than a running total up until and including that date (Fiscal Date).
Please can I have some advice (I have already tried using SUM('Budget Data Fiscal Cal'[Units]) and ALL(('Budget Data Fiscal Cal'[Fiscal Date])).
Thanks!

caitlindrake_ , Make sure you are using data from a date table marked as date table
Totalytd( SUM('Budget Data Fiscal Cal'[Units]) , '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 :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.- caitlindrake_Frequent Visitor
Thank you for your responses, I have tried your suggestions and unfortunately still not getting any sum values.

Hi,
In addition to what Amit has suggested, ensure that, to your visual, you drag Date from the Date table.
