I have a DAX to calculate cumulative total. it is giving correct result if there are no filters or slicers applied. I have year slicer, when I click on that, 2019 year gives me correct result for every month but when I click 2018, it is giving me same result for every month. I have only data from September to December for 2018.
2019 result:
I found solution for this. First of all I should be using Dates instead of months in the dat for x- axis. Also, to improve performance, it is better to create a Standard 'Date' lookup table. This helped to improve performace significanly.
