    Hi F_Reh 

    Your DAX is almost correct - the issue is not the function itself, it’s how the year-end parameter is being interpreted in newer versions of Microsoft Power BI.

    Change it to:

    Attendances FYTD =
CALCULATE(
Daily_Attendances[Total_Attendances],
DATESYTD(DatesTable[Date], "03/31")
)

    If it still misbehaves, then your issue is one of these (common in Report Server setups):

    Your DatesTable is not marked as a Date Table

    Relationship between DatesTable[Date] and fact table is broken/inactive

    Daily_Attendances[Total_Attendances] is not a proper measure (should be SUM-based)

2) The Onsite (Remote Server) Version top rows looks like this (Descending). I have modified the measure to use "3/31":

 

 

Kind Regards
