Creating Y-o-Y % Change using DAX

Hi mjr:

Are you able to add a Date Table? If so, you can mark as Date Table and connect the Date field to your Financials date field. I'll paste DAX date table code below. You then go to New Table and put this code in.

I'd start off with just a revenue calculation, which may be the mtd measure you have? I think you just need to change your measures name from mtd Revenue to "Revenue"

Then

LY Revenue = CALCULATE([Revenue], DATEADD(Dates[Date], -1, YEAR))

YoY Revenue = [Revenue] - [LY Revenue]

YoY Rev % = DIVIDE([YoY Revenue], [LY Revenue])

If I'm off track, can you share sample data?

Thanks and hope this helps..

Here is DAX Date Table. * Critical to mark as Date table, validating on Date field.

Dates =

-- Specify a start date and end date

VAR StartDate = Date(2021,1,1)

VAR EndDate = Today() + 243

VAR FiscalMonthEnd = 12

-- Generate a base table of dates

VAR BaseTable = Calendar(StartDate, EndDate)

-- Add the Year for each individual date

VAR Years = ADDCOLUMNS(BaseTable,"Year",YEAR([Date]))

-- Add the calendar month and other month related data for each date

VAR Months = ADDCOLUMNS(

    Years,

    "Month",MONTH([Date]),

    "Year and Month Number",FORMAT([Date],"YYYY-MM"),

    "Year and Month Name",FORMAT([Date],"YYYY-MMM"),

    "Fiscal Year", IF( FiscalMonthEnd = 12, YEAR([Date]), IF( MONTH([DATE]) <= FiscalMonthEnd, YEAR([DATE])-1, YEAR([Date]))),

    "Fiscal Month", IF( FiscalMonthEnd = 12, MONTH([Date]),

        IF( MONTH([Date]) <= FiscalMonthEnd, FiscalMonthEnd + MONTH([Date]), MONTH([Date]) - FiscalMonthEnd))

)

-- Add the Quarter and other quarter related data for each date   

VAR Quarters = ADDCOLUMNS(

    Months,

    "Quarter",ROUNDUP(MONTH([Date])/3,0),

    "Year and Quarter",[Year] & "-Q" & ROUNDUP(MONTH([Date])/3,0))

-- Add the Day and other day related data for each date   

VAR Days = ADDCOLUMNS(

    Quarters,

    "Day",DAY([Date]),

    "Day Name",FORMAT([Date],"DDDD"),

    "Day Of Week",WEEKDAY([Date]),

    "Day Of Year", DATEDIFF (DATE(YEAR([Date]),1,1), [Date], DAY) + 1)

-- Add the Week (assuming each week starts on a Sunday) and other week related data for each date   

VAR Weeks = ADDCOLUMNS(

    Days,

    "Week Of Month (Sunday)",INT((DAY([Date])-1)/7)+1,

    "Week of Year (Sunday)",WEEKNUM([Date],1),

    "Year and Week (Sunday)",[Year] & "-W" & WEEKNUM([Date],1))

-- Add an 'Is Working Day' column which will be true for all days but Saturday and Sunday.

var WorkingDays = ADDCOLUMNS(

    Weeks,

    "Is Working Day", NOT WEEKDAY( [Date] ) IN {1,7})

RETURN WorkingDays
