DAX Measure Monthly Difference

Hi All,

i've the following table named TURNOVER:

DATEID
01/05/2024AAA
01/05/2024BBB
01/05/2024CCC
01/05/2024DDD
01/06/2024AAA
01/06/2024BBB
01/06/2024CCC
01/07/2024AAA
01/07/2024BBB
01/07/2024DDD
01/07/2024EEE
01/08/2024BBB
01/08/2024DDD
01/08/2024FFF
01/08/2024HHH
01/08/2024LLL

Date is when the record is insert (1th of each month); ID is the key ID of the table.

I've to create a DAX that calculate for each month the positive (new record) and the negative difference (missing record) compared with the previous month.

For Example, on the 01/07/2024 i've two new record (IN) and one missing record (OUT) compared with june.

DateRecordCountINOUT
01/05/20244--
01/06/2024301
01/07/2024421
01/08/2024532

Which is in your opinion the best way?

I tried with the following DAX but it doesn't work properly:

_DipIN = 
VAR CurrentDate = CALCULATE(MAX(Turnover[Date]))
VAR PreviousDate=CALCULATE(MAX(Turnover[Date]),FILTER(ALL(Turnover),Turnover[Date]<CurrentDate))
VAR Dip=MIN(Turnover[ID])
VAR _Left=
SUMMARIZE(FILTER(Turnover,
         Turnover[Date]=PreviousDate),
         Turnover[ID],
         "QtyLeft",COUNT(Turnover[ID]))
VAR _Right= SUMMARIZE(FILTER(Turnover, 
                      Turnover[Date]=CurrentDate),
                      Turnover[ID],
                      "QtyRight",COUNT(Turnover[ID]))
return
COUNTROWS(EXCEPT(_Right,_Left))

@DaniEMIT , For this first create a measure for Previous month date

PreviousMonthDate =
   EDATE(Turnover[Date], -1)
 
Then create a calculated column for Record count 
RecordCount =
   CALCULATE(COUNT(Turnover[ID]), ALLEXCEPT(Turnover, Turnover[Date]))
 
Then Create a Measure for New Records (IN)
NewRecords =
VAR CurrentMonth = MAX(Turnover[Date])
VAR PreviousMonth = EDATE(CurrentMonth, -1)
RETURN
COUNTROWS(
EXCEPT(
VALUES(Turnover[ID]),
CALCULATETABLE(VALUES(Turnover[ID]), Turnover[Date] = PreviousMonth)
)
)
 
Create a Measure for Missing Records (OUT)
MissingRecords =
   VAR CurrentMonth = MAX(Turnover[Date])
   VAR PreviousMonth = EDATE(CurrentMonth, -1)
   RETURN
   COUNTROWS(
       EXCEPT(
           CALCULATETABLE(VALUES(Turnover[ID]), Turnover[Date] = PreviousMonth),
           VALUES(Turnover[ID])
       )
   )
 
Create a Summary Table:
SummaryTable =
SUMMARIZE(
Turnover,
Turnover[Date],
"RecordCount", [RecordCount],
"IN", [NewRecords],
"OUT", [MissingRecords]
)
