sameperiode last year
Hi,
I want to compare data with the results in the same periode last year and have the next DAX formula:
- Total Calls = COUNT(NLE_PowerBI_verzoeken[HID])
- Total Calls LY = CALCULATE( [Total Calls] ; SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR( Datum[Date]))
When i don't use a date-filter visual i see that the line "Total Calls LY" (last year) also shows the next year.
How can i complete the DAX formula that it have a maximum date of the current date?
Thanks
The easiest way I've found to deal with this is to just check for a current value ...
Total Calls LY = IF( [Total Calls], CALCULATE( [Total Calls] ; SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR( Datum[Date])), BLANK())You actually don't need the third argument - BLANK() - because BLANK() is the default third argument for the IF() formula.
