Line Chart

Hi,

I am trying to create a line chart which looks at the previous month sales and then forecasts for the current month. I have filter for Year and Month.

My dimension is Day([Order Date]) and my measure is Sum({<PeriodID = {'2808'}>} [Inclusive Amount Ordered]) which is Feb 2025.

Issue: once I filter by Year 2025 and Month Apr, the line chart goes blank, and I believe this is because of the dimension I am using where in theory there is no data. How do I work around this as every time i select a month, I will be looking at the previous month sales and then forecasting for the current month.

I thought I can do this using an analysis but doesn't seem like it.

Thanks

Thanks for this response. The issue was that my calendar didn't scale properly therefor when I was writing my measure, the Days would be limited.

Try this 

Sum({<Year = {"$(=Max(Year))"}, Month = {"$(=Month(AddMonths(Max([Order Date]), -1)))"}>} [Inclusive Amount Ordered])
