How can i calculate PYTD?

[Ethanhunt123]

Year	Month	Sales	SalesPytd
2019	Oct	200	200
2019	Nov	100	300
2019	Dec	300	600
2020	Jan	100	700
2020	Feb	200	900

I want to create something like this. If  today is 22 may 2020  then my sales PYTD should be from 1 Jan 2019 to 22 May 2020

So couple ways to do that @Ethanhunt123, if you go down the time intelligence route, you would create a separate Date table and use probably use something like TOTALYTD to calculate your YTD measure. Maybe something like CALCULATE(SUM([Column]),TOTALYTD('Dates'[Date]) .

Then you would use something along the lines of CALCULATE([ytd measure],SAMPERIODLASTYEAR('Dates'[Date])) for example.

The other way, See if my Time Intelligence the Hard Way provides a different way of accomplishing what you are going for.
