Calculating Variance based on the year selection in slicer
I have to create a dashboard calculating variance between three different values which are Amount, Fee and count. DB needs to have a slicer enabling user to select current year and any prvious year e.g, 2024 verses 2023 and so on. Dasboard should show the variance percentage based on user selection. Can anyone please help. TIA

Hi BUSH781 ,
You can create a measure as below to get it, please find the details in the attachment.
Variance = VAR _curyear = YEAR ( TODAY () ) VAR _selyear = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[year] ) VAR _cyamount = CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Amount] ), FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[year] = _curyear ) ) VAR _syamount = CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Amount] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[year] = _selyear ) ) RETURN _cyamount - _syamountBest Regards
