Filtering a measure

Anonymous — Tue, 02 Nov 2021 17:26:21 GMT

Hi there,

I have a table that includes the price, by month, for several years of a product in 10 different cities.

Can I create a line chart with a filter for the city I want displayed, that shows % change of the product (MoM, QoQ, YoY) as I drill up/down?

If I just have one city, I can create a measure for % change that adjusts to the time intervals and there are no problems. However, with multiple cities, the dates are duplicated and the measure is unable to create one outcome. However, with the filter dropdown on the visualization all I would be looking for is one outcome per time interval.

I'm pretty new here and think I might just have to include something within my measure DAX that references to the filter applied to the visualization? But let me know

Anonymous , I think you are looking for a measure slicer, you should use date table for YOY,QOQ, MOM

QOQ = divide([QTD Sales] -[Last QTD Sales] , [Last QTD Sales])

YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date],"12/31"))
Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year),"12/31"))

This year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR('Date'[Date]),"12/31"))
Last year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year)),"12/31"))

This Year = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])))
Last Year = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1))

Yes, thank you. The measure slicer was exactly what I was looking for.
