I have a date table that is standard. In my data table I have a list of 'ClosedDates' that does include blanks (maybe this is the issue?). When I filter this table manually I get the results I expect, a count of 380 rows. However, my measure is only calculating 363 rows. I went through the data and cannot determine any root cause of why this is happening (such as a specific date with 17 rows). The funny thing is, the 'ClosedDates' has 10 blank rows, 7 have a start date in 2019 but no closeddate. The sum is 17 but can this really be related? I figured its unlikely but honestly have no clue what is happening.

My slicer is a timeline with the month selection. So I select February and want totals for 2019 through end of February. I have the same formula but counting the start date column and it works perfectly. (It is a IT ticket report that calculates the number of tickets opened and closed in a period)

My measure:
Code:
TOTALYTD(COUNTA(Query1[CloseDateRelate]),CalendarTable[Date])

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
I figured out the issue and knew it would be a "duh" moment, as it usually is. I have two relationships between 'CalendarTable[Date]' and the Query1 table. The active one IS NOT with [CloseDateRelate], it is with [StartDateRelate], so I just need to build in a USERELATIONSHIP function and it works now.
