Why DATESYTD with another filter do not work inside CALCULATE ?

hi , i have a model like that:

 

and i have a mesure in Buildings like that :

 

bl_Ytd_YhdCrntStg = CALCULATE(  SUM(  Dim_Buildings[HousingUnits]  ) ,Dim_BuildingConstructionProgress,Dim_BuildingConstructionProgress[is_current]=1  ,  DATESYTD( Dim_Time_BldCnstPrgrs[DT_Date])    )  

as you can see i am trying to sum HousingUnits and to use 2 filters : is_current=1 ; DATESYTD .

the problem is that DATESYTD  do not work when its with  is_current=1 , And also not in the opposite direction ,

can anybody tell me why ?  THANKS!

    THANKS Lydia - BIG HELP !!!

    TO QOMMUNTY HERE IS THE SOLUTION BY LYDIA :

     

    Measure 1 = CALCULATE(CALCULATE( SUM( Dim_Buildings[HousingUnits] ) , DATESYTD( Dim_Time_BldCnstPrgrs[DT_Date])),Dim_BuildingConstructionProgress[is_current]=1 ) 

     OR

    yanivvl,

    What fields do you use to create relationship among the above three tables? Would you please share sample data of the three tables?

    In addition, do you get expected result when you use existing fields inn the three tables to create visual?


    Regards,
    Lydia

        You can upload PBIX file to OneDrive, and share me the shared link of the PBIX file via Private Message.
