Count rows in current financial year and compare to same time in previous financial year

Hi,

 

I am relatively new to PowerBi and I have been looking to practice on some example data.

 

My aim is to count the number of rows in my dataset (Based on number of fires and there is 1 fire per row) in the current financial year to date and the same time in the previous financial year (FY runs from 1/4 to 31/3).

 

I have come across a previous chat which I have replicated the solution from in my own dataset successfully. However this was designed for calendar year and I would like to ammend it for financial year.

 

Any help on how to do this based on the below DAX would be greatly appreciated.

 

Total Sales =

CALCULATE(SUM(Data[Sales]))

YTD prods =

CALCULATE (

    [Total Sales],

    FILTER (

        'Calendar',

        'Calendar'[Year] = YEAR ( TODAY () )

            && 'Calendar'[Date] <= TODAY ()

    )

)

LY YTD Sales =

CALCULATE (

    [Total Sales],

    FILTER (

        'Calendar',

        'Calendar'[Year]

            = YEAR ( TODAY () ) - 1

            && 'Calendar'[Date]

                <= EOMONTH ( TODAY (), -13 ) + DAY ( TODAY () )

    )

)

Difference% =

DIVIDE([YTD prods] - [LY YTD Sales],[LY YTD Sales])
