year-month in a visualization
Hi, i am trying to build a graph with year-month in the x but as i have a jerarchy i have to choose year or month. I want to see both because i have information of different years, for example, from 2020 june to 2021 june....How can i do? I want to see it by month.
I dont want the drill down.
Thanks

You need to create a YearMonth column in your Date table with something like FORMAT('Date'[Date], "yyyy mmm"). FYI that this article has DAX you can copy to get a table with that. It also has special hidden characters so that they show in the correct order in your visual (w/o a Sort By column). Note you may have to replace the minus signs in the code as it didn't render correctly on the web site.

Hi KarineDol
the general solution is to create a calendar table, then build relationship between your dimension table and fact table.
