Hi All

I have single prompt (Date), I want to pass date to my performance tile (already working fine) but I want to pass month without creating new prompt to Date wise revenue analysis.

Is it possible?

    Sounds like you need master / detail ->

    in reality you are wanting to show all the days from the same month and year, correct?

    in your filters you'd want something like:

    Year(date_column) = Year(prompted_date)

    AND Month(date_column) = Month (prompted_date)

    Or he could create Month based measures "Current Revenue Month" which he pulls onto the month level of his time hierarchy to make it not change at that level of detail.

    yes - that's another viable option to have a Revenue Month that represents the MM-YYYY of each date in the month. 

    I've always said a well formed calendar/date dimension is 101 fundamental and pays for itself minutes after deployment!

    Yes, you are right, is this possible?

    Yes, cornerstone I would say!

    And on possible, duplicate your existing measure, rename it, drag it onto the month level of the time hierarchy, easy!

    Thomas is 100% spot on. And also to re-iterate my other post: Get some training on the basics!
