need help formula
Hi there ;
i need your small help , i have a table as below i need to calculate with a measure only sum of the current month amount.
for below sample , we are in November so current month is November , in dates only two dates includes amount for current month . So i need to catch form sum = "150" result .
but dont forget pls the main thing when i open the report , system will compare the date of opening report and will find current month amount and ewill sum .I mean if today was one of the december's day and if i would open report today system must care the in below table December dates .
i hope it is clear , thanks in advance
Here is a measure expression that shows one way to do this. I assume you will use this in a card visual.
Sum This Month =
VAR thismonth =
MONTH (
TODAY ()
)
RETURN
CALCULATE (
SUM ( TableA[Amount] ),
FILTER (
ALLSELECTED ( TableA[Date] ),
MONTH ( TableA[Month] ) = thismonth
)
)Regards,
Pat

That was a typo. It is not the Month but the Date column again. No Month column required.
Sum This Month =
VAR thismonth =
MONTH (
TODAY ()
)
RETURN
CALCULATE (
SUM ( TableA[Amount] ),
FILTER (
ALLSELECTED ( TableA[Date] ),
MONTH ( TableA[Date] ) = thismonth
)
)Regards,
