Difference instead of Total in PowerBI Matrix

I cant seem to find a solution to this online.  Basically I have a matrix table that displays two columns and instead of showing the total all I want is to display the difference.  Not sure how to do...

    Hi common763 ,

     

    Please create such a measure.

     

    Measure = 
VAR x = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(Sheet4[Number]),
    FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED(Sheet4),
        Sheet4[DATE] < MAX(Sheet4[DATE]) && Sheet4[FACILITY] = MAX(Sheet4[FACILITY])
    )
)
VAR y = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(Sheet4[Number]),
    FILTER( ALL(Sheet4), Sheet4[DATE] = MAX(Sheet4[DATE]) && Sheet4[FACILITY] = MAX(Sheet4[FACILITY]) )
)
RETURN
IF(
    HASONEFILTER(Sheet4[DATE]),
    SUM(Sheet4[Number]),
    x-y
)

     

     

     

     

    Best regards,
    Lionel Chen

Hi Lionel,

 

Thank you, this was really helpful, However for some fields the calculation is wrong. How this can be solved. 

And is there any Measure to calacute the difference without the dependence of Rows.

Would be great if you could help me on this please, much appreciated, thank you.

Note: I have Week number in Column, and when I filter/slicer 2 weeks the difference should calculate only for that two columns and not for the entire columns.

 

Regards,
