create a line chart to show today data , 3 months movement and 12 movement in form of line chart

I want to create  total sales data for products as x axis and sales value as  axis.

 

now i want to show current data for total sales as red dot and rolling 12 months movement as black bar and rolling 3 months  as orange bar - so in a single graph, we can see everything

 

i was able to achieve current data and 12 m using error bars, but failed to get a proper results for the 3 months

Hi @Adi57 ,

Based on my testing, please try the following methods:

1.Create the simple table.

2.Create the new measure to calculate today, 3 months and 12 months.

Today sales = CALCULATE (
        SUM ('Table'[Sales]),
        FILTER (
            ALL ('Table'),
            'Table'[Date] = TODAY()
        )
    )
3 months sales = 
VAR mon = MONTH(TODAY())
var three_mon = CALCULATE (
        SUM ('Table'[Sales]),
        FILTER (
            ALL ('Table'),
            'Table'[Year] = YEAR(TODAY())
                && 'Table'[Month] <= MONTH(TODAY()) && 'Table'[Month] > MONTH(TODAY()) - 3
        )
    )
VAR less_three = CALCULATE (
        SUM ('Table'[Sales]),
        FILTER (
            ALL ('Table'),
            'Table'[Year] = YEAR(TODAY()) || ('Table'[Year] = YEAR(TODAY()) - 1 && 'Table'[Month] > MONTH(TODAY()) + 9)
        )
    )
RETURN
IF(mon < 3, less_three, three_mon)
12 months move = 
VAR mont = MONTH(TODAY())
RETURN
CALCULATE (
        SUM ('Table'[Sales]),
        FILTER (
            ALL ('Table'),
            'Table'[Year] = YEAR(TODAY()) || ('Table'[Year] = YEAR(TODAY()) - 1 && 'Table'[Month] > mont)
        )
    )

3.Create the new measure to show different sales.

Total sales = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    SELECTEDVALUE('Table 1'[Period]) = "today", [Today sales],
    SELECTEDVALUE('Table 1'[Period]) = "3 months", [3 months sales],
    SELECTEDVALUE('Table 1'[Period]) = "12 months", [12 months move]
)

4.Drag two measure into the bar chart.
