Difficulties in using a single date filter for facts with different dates

Difficulties in using a single date filter for facts with different dates

Hello everyone, I'm a new Qlikview student and I'm breaking my head to solve a date problem. Could they help me?

I have 3 tables:

Budgeted (sales projection type) [Product Code, Budget Date, Amount Estimated]

Realized (Sale) [Product Code, Date of Sale, Quantity Sold]

Product [Product Code, Product Description]

When I set up a chart comparing the budgeted x performed, I need to select the Month dimension however if I select the Dimension month of the realized budget is wrong and vice versa ... I would need to put a single date dimension. I joined some forums but could not solve them.

As you can see in the image above, the 3rd graph is not bringing the information as it should ...

I have attached the file in which I am trying to perform the tests ...

Please, I really need some help.

Thank you
