Its not MTD. It would be YTD
Refer the below screenshot for your reference

MONTHTODATE returns a cumulative sums across a month time span for a single numeric parameter then resets it value . The syntax is MONTHTODATE(x) .Below shows the application of MONTHTODATE function
When you observe clearly you can see that sum of Sales for week 1 and week 2 is equal to Monthvalue of week 2 , similarly sum of week 1, week 2, week 3 and week 4 is equal to Monthvalue in Week 4.
Now observe the value resets in Week 5 and starts calculating again for that particular month.
Also make sure that the time should be either in days or weeks, and the formula cannot be used, if model timescale is General Weeks.
(Correction: the line item says Monthvalue , but it's MONTHTODATE)
I hope it helps

Ok.

Let say the time scale is month(Jan'21,Feb'21...) and sales(100,200...likewise) so my expected output for MTD should be 300. So how to get that output.
Just curious :)…
Hello fellow Anaplaners, I have a question about the UX for Anaplan for hierarchical list. If I have a list with multiple layers, say P1, P2, P3, and P4, and the workpage had 2 axis, list and line items, in its vertical axis and time in its horizontal axis (see figure below) The list is shown without indentations, and may…
I have seen two methods used to build financial statements and I am wondering what others have experienced in scalability/maintenance between the two or if there is a better approach. Assume that we have a flat data source for our general ledger within Anaplan. Our line item we are focused on within the source data is the…
