Dear All,

 

I am using Sample Superstore dataset and created 3 Calculation Fields.

1- Previous_month

2- Prior_month

3- %chg

 

Created 2 worksheets

1- KPI_table (Showing values in Table)

2- KPI in Title (Showing values in Worksheet title )

 

The problem is that %chg is showing value in KPI_Table worksheet but showing "None" in other worksheet.

 

Tableau packages workbook is attached for better understanding.

 

Best Reagrds,

Muhammad Arslan

    Which is why you get null as a result on your %change because your values never meet each other.

    Solution

    Use EXCLUDE LOD:

    {exclude DATETRUNC('month', [Order Date]): [%chg]}

    Remember to adjust your KPI in your header to this exclude lod and all will be fine:
