PREVIOUSMONTH not work
Hello
I have a mistery....
I have a simple table and a simple previous month calculate measure
Booking Lines PM = CALCULATE(sum(Data[Booking Lines]);PREVIOUSMONTH(Data[Booking Month].[Date]))
Is correct ... But when apply a filter by month (example October) i show this
I show a blank value in Previous Month why?
Best regards
Looked at it and as suspected you have Create Month from Hoja1 table used on rows, please use "Date" column from calendar table on rows and that will do it. see image below.

You need date dimension for these kind of calculation which seems to be the reason that it is not working. There are many posts on how to create date/calendar dimension in powerbi.

Hello
Yes! I can try reading other post. But not running
Step 1: Create a Calendar datatable --> Calendar = CALENDARAUTO()
Step 2: Relationship
Step 3: Change Formula
Booking Lines PM = CALCULATE(sum(Data[Booking Lines]);PREVIOUSMONTH('Calendar'[Date]))
Any ideas ...

In your table what date are you using, use it from your new calendar table.
