Column value from date row

[Anonymous]

Hi 

Could you help

I would like to calculate a measure to show the value (price) in a column for todays date minus the value on 8/1/2024.

Can you show to create a measure of this.

Table: 1

Date	Price	Item
31/12/2023	5.33	Hat
08/01/2024	7.10	Coat
10/07/2024	11.30	Show

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

Based on my testing, please try the following methods:

1.Create the sample table.

2.Create the new measure to calculate the value.

Price minus = 
var _today = TODAY()
VAR TargetDate = DATE(2024,1,8)
var _toprice = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Price]), 'Table'[Date] = _today)
var _tarprice = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Price]), 'Table'[Date] = TargetDate)
RETURN
_toprice - _tarprice

3.Drag the measure into the card visual. The result is shown below.

Best Regards,
