Line and Clustered Column Chart

[lrobbins7663]

I have created a Line and Clustered Column chart with the Fiscal Year as the X-axis, Registration Totals by Month as the Y-axis and the % Change from Fiscal Year to Fiscal Year for the Y-axis (Line).

The following measure gives me the Totals for the current Fiscal Year:

Crnt_TotalTrendMonByFY =

var year = MAX('Test Registrations Trending'[Fiscal Year])

var retVal = CALCULATE(SUM('Test Registrations Trending'[count])

, ALL('Test Registrations Trending'[Fiscal Year])

, 'Test Registrations Trending'[Fiscal Year] = year

)

return retVal

The next measure gives me the Totals for the preceding Fiscal Years:

Crnt_TotalTrendMonByFYLast =

var year = MAX('Test Registrations Trending'[Fiscal Year])-1

var retVal = CALCULATE(SUM('Test Registrations Trending'[count])

, ALL('Test Registrations Trending'[Fiscal Year])

, 'Test Registrations Trending'[Fiscal Year] = year

)

return retval

Then % Change is through this measure:

Crnt% =

DIVIDE([Crnt_TotalTrendMonByFY]-[Crnt_TotalTrendMonByFYLast],[Crnt_TotalTrendMonByFY])

I know this is pretty simple but I amreally new at Power BI. Everything displays correctly except that the line displays 100% for the first Fiscal Year.  I don't want the line to start until the second Fiscal Year so it shows the percentage change.  I also need to display on the Visual the actual percentage that I see in the Tool Tip when hovering over the line.  Are either of these two things possible?

Thank you to anyone who wants to help in advance! 🙂

Hi @lrobbins7663 ,

Did you have any other fiscal years in your data source? For example, supposing current year is 2020, last year is 2019, did you have any values about 2018? If not, the percentage about 2019 as first fiscal year will be 100%.

In addition, if you only have two fiscal years in the table and you do not want to show 100% for the first fiscal year, what is your expected output? Could you please consider sharing more details about this issue or a sample file without any sesentive information for further discussion?

Sample data and expected output would help tremendously.
