Create a KPI target based on the previous year value

For example, if I have 10000 items sold in 2022, and if I want my target in 2023, I must do : 10000 * 1.8.

I have: table1[items], table1[date]
 items date

 car     2022/06/19 

 table  2023/10/11 

 car     2022/06/13 

 house 2023/02/11

Hi @game1 ,

I updated the sample pbix file, please find the details in the attachment.

Target = 
VAR _year =
    SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date].[Year] )
VAR _month =
    SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date].[MonthNo],12)
VAR _pycount =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'Table'[items] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ),
            YEAR ( 'Table'[date] ) = _year-1
                &&  IF(ISFILTERED('Date'[Date].[Month]),MONTH ( 'Table'[date] )  = _month,1=1)
        )
    )
RETURN
       _pycount  * 1.8

Hi @game1 ,

I created a sample pbix file(see the attachment), please check if that is what you want.

Target = 
VAR _year =
    SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date].[Year] )
VAR _month =
    SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date].[MonthNo],12)
VAR _pycount =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'Table'[items] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ),
            YEAR ( 'Table'[date] ) = _year-1
                && MONTH ( 'Table'[date] ) <= _month
        )
    )
RETURN
    _pycount * 1.8

Hello,

It is only working for Year, not for Month. For example, I should have for october 2023, 1.8 x 1 = 1.8, because it should count the items of october, for the previous year. In october 2022, we have 1 item. So, the target for ocotber 2023, must be : 1.8 x 1 = 1.8. It I select only Year, it work perfectly, but month is not giving the good result. Thanks!

Hi @game1 ,

What's your expected result? Could you please provide more details base on your shared sample data?

 

Best Regards

Hi, 

It is possible to do the same thing by using Table[date]? Because, what I need is that if I select a year or month from Table[date], it must calculated my Target.  Thanks!

Hi @game1 ,

When apply the date field of your fact table, it will only display the data with the current selected month. Hence it will not return the expected result...

VAR _year =
    SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Date].[Year] )
VAR _month =
    SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Date].[MonthNo],12)

Best Regards
