    You really need to post an image of your model. You should not need USERELATIONSHIP. It is not clear if [report period] is a date. You should not be using the fact column inside SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR

Hello Matt,

It doens't works even if i force the relas if i force this column usage.

I have simply changed the date on both sides to DD/MM/YYYY to test it.


Maybe i am doing wrong ? Total YTD LY return me an error with the following code:

Total YTD =
CALCULATE (
SUM(Report[Revenue USD]),
DATESYTD ( Report[Report Period] ),
USERELATIONSHIP (Report[Report Period],'Date'[Date] )
)

Total YTD LY =
CALCULATE (
[Total YTD],SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(Report[Report Period] ),
USERELATIONSHIP (Report[Report Period],'Date'[Date] )
)

Error Message:
MdxScript(Model) (56, 17) Erreur de calcul dans la mesure 'Report'[Total YTD LY] :
La fonction « SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR » attend une sélection contiguë quand la colonne de date n'est pas unique, est discontinue ou contient une partie heure.


Regards.

    Thank you for your reply,

     

    i modified the code for both measures but i have the same amount for Total YTD LY and Total YTD (i should have less for YTD LY):

    Total YTD =
    CALCULATE (
    SUM(Report[Revenue USD]),
    DATESYTD ( Report[Report Period] )
    )
    Total YTD LY =
    CALCULATE (
    [Total YTD],SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date] )
    )

    (I put some blank on other fields)

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Report period (each client has his report with the same report period for each month):

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Regards
