Hello I'm new to dax syntaxe and I have an issue, I want to create a mesure that calculate the accumulated value between 2 years 2021 and 2022, that's mean in 2021 it get the normal budget value but in 2022 it get the sum of the budget for 2021 and 2022.

Hey Anonymous ,

try the following approach:

Accumulated = VAR vCurrentYear = YEAR( MAX( Abfrage1[date] ) ) RETURN IF( vCurrentYear = 2022, CALCULATE( SUM( Abfrage1[budget] ), DATESINPERIOD( 'Date'[Date], MAX( 'Date'[Date] ), -1, YEAR ) ), SUM( Abfrage1[budget] ) )

Be aware that for that approach and for many that use time intelligence you need a date table:

First of all thank you very much selimovd for the quick response.

I just did some changes like (''Abfrage1'[date] in state of Date['Date']) I also changed SUM( Abfrage1[budget] ) by MAX( Abfrage1[budget] ) in the end of the query and the result is fine for the year 2021, but for the year 2022 it's not working like I want, may be I haven't clarify enough but the sum must be like this exemple : date :01/01/2021 budget :200, date :01/01/2022 budget :300, -> accumulated mesure for 2021 :200 which is ok by our work , accumulated mesure for 2022 : 500 !! so the sum must be like this: 01/01/2021 with 01/01/2022, then 01/02/2021 with 01/02/2022 ... by the acctual formula I think it calculate the sum of the hole year but what I want is to calculate the sum between the same dates ex: (01/01/2021 and 01/01/2022) but between the 2 years. I hope you get the idea selimovd and thanks.
