I have a line chart in which i am showing the cumulative value of the plan and actual and I have a week slicer in which I have the end of every week.
In the line chart, i would like to show the Actual until the filtered week.
I am not sure if that is possible since the slicer of week name is a specific date and not a range, can anyone help me ?
See attached files in the link below the excel file is how i want to be and the PBIX is how it is now.

I think the question is fairly simple. I would like to have a dynamic filter on Quicksight. I have the column week which is a number (3, 4, 5 and 6) for example. The data is refreshed every week.
We want to show only the latest week by default (out of weeks 3, 4, 5 and 6, I want to filter by default on 6), but then the users can select if they want to see more weeks.
The week after, the default filter would be 7, and so on.
Is there a way to tell the filter to automatically filter by rule of MAX(week) or something like that?
It would be very helpful. I have other alternatives but they are not that great.
I would choose a date field that I understand that must exist in your data and then create a dynamic filter on that date field.
You create filters on date fields by selecting the filter conditions and date values that you want to use. There are three filter types for dates:
For your case, you will have to use
Relative – A series of date/time elements based on the current date. You can filter records based on the current date and your selected unit of measure (UOM). Date filter units include years, quarters, months, weeks, days, hours, and minutes.
Use the following procedure to create a relative filter for a date field.
On the toolbar at the left, choose Filter.
In the Filters pane that opens at left, choose the plus icon (+), and then choose a date field to filter on.
A new filter is added to the Filters pane.
In the Filters pane, choose the new filter to expand it.
For Filter type, choose Relative dates.
Choose a unit of time (week for your case).
Choose how you want the filter to relate to the time frame. For example, if you choose to report on weeks, your options are previous week, this week, week to date, last N weeks, and next N weeks.
If you choose Last n UOM, specify a number for your range—for example, last 2 weeks, or last 1 week.
Second solution.
Add Filter
Choose week
Type Top and Bottom Filter
Show Top write 1
By week ( use max aggregation)
Pasting an image from an analysis that I do the same thing for integer column year
I have a simple date table (marked as a Date Table)
the Date column is native to it, the rest are calculated columns.
This issue will be about these of them:
Month Name = FORMAT(Dates[Date], "Mmmm")
Month = Month(Dates[Date])
Both set to "Don't summarize".
I dropped them into value field of a visual out of curiousity, and a curious thing happened - despite "don't summarize" they took MIN form of value to display, but Month Name came out incorrect.
Image 1: 3 out of 4 lines in the column First Month Name are wrong, unlike Month which is fine.
Image 2: added Date to the row fields to check - line by line it's fine, but subtotal still wrong:
Image 3: I filtered Month Name in data view for February, to see which lines are for Month value of 1 - there is none.
This is a blank new report, no measures, no filters - that's all it is.
If someone can explain why this happens, thanks in advance
The columns with "Earliest"/"First"/"Min" are summarizing because they are implicit measures in a matrix visual. Since there are multiple months in one quarter it has to aggregate somehow.
The month name is a text field, so it sorts alphabetically by default. If you want it to sort by month number instead, you can use the Sort by Column feature to sort Month Name by Month.
I have a google sheet that gets filled via a google form.
Time stamps are created every time a bar code (work order number) is scanned.
The work order number is in the first column.
The 4 unique time stamp fields below are populated in the 2nd column from the google form.
Setup start
Setup finish
Production start
Production finish
The time stamp is created in the 3rd column.
I am trying to do conditional formatting
where the total setup time and production time are calculated but they are tied to their respective work order number.
time stamp functionality
The difficulty is that the timestamp values all fall into one vertical column.
I don't want a mix up of timestamp values with different work order numbers.
The work order numbers along with the 4 unique time stamp values may be input at various times so the formula can't be order specific.
Is there a way to do this? Thanks!

Make a pivot table of the data from the form, then use simple formulas adjacent to the new pivot to get the results you are trying to get. Example Image
I am indexing user data for each day and using Kibana to analyse it, so far I am able to visualize all my requirement. But I am not able to visualize following use case
I want to analyse total number of user,repeated number of users from previous day and how many are unique.
I can visualize total number of user for day , but how do I compare today's data from yesterday.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance
I hope I understand your requirement correctly, but you could create a Vertical Bar Chart visualization with Kibana and change the default 'Count' to 'Unique Count', select the field you like to do the unique count for and then add an X-Axis with a date histogram on your timestamp field.
This will create a bar chart and each bar will contain the unique count for each time interval. So if you select 7 days as your timeframe and 1 day interval in your X-Axis date histogram, you'll see the unique count per day.
I'm writing a report that has proposal information by estimator per month. So I created a matrix where each row is grouped by estimator and each column is grouped by the month.
The thing is, my query includes data for this year AND last year, but the columns by month should only contain this year's information. So I though simple, I'll create a filter: Year(variable_date) = Year(Today()).
When I do this, no record information shows up. But then I changed the column to group by month AND year and suddenly, it works. Only 2015 records show up in the calculations per month.
Why did I need to group it by month AND year? Why couldn't I just group by month and have the filter remove records that didn't have the correct year using the filter group property tab?
Thanks!
P.S. I hope I have the tags right...
It sounds like month and year are separate fields. So when you group only by month it is grouping all of the rows where the value for that field is the same. (Month=8 exists in 2014 and 2015.) The values are just numbers to SSRS and it doesn't know it needs to look at the year field too unless you tell it to.
