Hi,
I have 3 tables, one is having sales, other is having budget and another is having forcast values.
Table - 1: Sales table
Table - 2 : Budget table
Table - 3 : Forcast table
I want to use two matrix tables one for months and other for quarters
In first matrix table: (which is for Months)
I want show sale values for completed months i.e, Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun.
For the current month i.e, Jul, need to show MTD, forecast values
For the months Aug and Sep need to show forecast values.
As time continues, If we are in Aug then we need to show sale values for Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun and Jul
Then the current month is Aug, So for Aug month need to show MTD, forecast values.
Likewise every time it should be dynamic, when we are entering new months.
In second matrix table : (which is for Quarters)
I want to show sale values and budget values for completed quarters i.e, Q1,Q2
for current quarter i.e,Q3, need to show forecast values and forecast vs budget.
If we have moved to Q4,
need to show sale values and budget values for Q1,Q2,Q3
for Q4 need to show forecast and forecast vs budget.
Likewise it should be dynamic when we are moving to new Quarters.
Please help me to do.
Thanks,
AshDil.
@AshDil , First of all unpivot the budget table (month)
https://radacad.com/pivot-and-unpivot-with-power-bi
Now with help from mon the and year create date , a new column
date = "01-" & [Month] & "-" [Year] // change data type to year
Join all three tables with date table having qtr year etc
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.
Create a common category table and use that too

then analyze with help from date and category table
Hi @amitchandak ,
I have done above all steps but my requirement is to show measures dynamically with time. Please help me on that.
Thanks,
AshDil.
