Hello,
i have the following challenge:
There is a table with project data, which stores values for a month for different reporting periods:
PROJECT | Reporting Period | Date | Value
A | 1 | 01/2025 | 1000
B | 1 | 01/2025 | 1500
A | 2 | 01/2025 | 1200
A | 2 | 01/2025 | 1450
A | 1 | 02/2025 | 1200
A | 2 | 02/2025 | 1250
B | 2 | 02/2025 | 5000
A | 3 | 02/2025 | 2250
B | 3 | 02/2025 | 4000
this table is connected to a date table via the "Date" column.
I need a bar chart where I have the years on the x-axis. but each year for reporting period 1 and 2 so that the x axis looks like this:
2025 (period=1)
2025 (period=2)
2026 (period=1)
2026 (period=2)
and so on..
How could I solve this?
Many thanks for any help.
Solved! Go to Solution.
@DocDri You can use a LOOKUPVALUE function then
Year_Period = YEAR('Date'[Date]) & " (period=" & LOOKUPVALUE('YourTable'[Reporting Period], 'YourTable'[Date], 'Date'[Date]) & ")"

@Akash_Varuna Thanks! But related does not work here, I think because it's a 1 (date) to many ('YourTable') connection.
@DocDri For this, create a calculated column in your Date table with the following DAX formula:
Year_Period = YEAR('Date'[Date]) & " (period=" & RELATED('YourTable'[Reporting Period]) & ")"
Then, use this Year_Period column on the X-axis of your bar chart to display the years and reporting periods as desired.
