How to add prior year variance into visual among specific grouping

 

Hello PBIC Forum Good Day!

 

Sample .pbix below

 

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qIbW42OxneGie_OXwJ-GY2zcTS-I9sEy/view?usp=share_link

 

 

What I’m trying to accomplish?

  • Looking for a way to show the prior year variance between each grouping (PY$, Lost$ and Retention)
  • Moving 2023 in front of 2022
  • Sorting in descending order by PY$

Much appreciate your time!

 

Thank you

See attached.  You can sort a column by another column as long as you can avoid the curcular reference. Conveniently you have both a yyyymm and a yymm column.  

There is a new feature called field parameters that simplifies your measure selection and also allows sorting by PY$.

 

Not sure what you mean by variance - is that the same as YoY%  ? 

PBIC Good Day!

No solution found as of yet.

Reposted with additional details for clarity per my specifice use case
