How to calculate amount percentage comparing to value of the same day of week

Hello everyone,

 

I tired to calculate amount percentage comparing to value of the same day on the same week.

For example, if I want to calculate amount for 2020/8/3(Mon), I need to compare it to amount of 2019/8/5(Mon).

DateAmount
2020/8/1  10
2020/8/2  20
2020/8/3  30
2020/8/4  40
2019/8/3  15
2019/8/4  25
2019/8/5  35

 

I think it's possible to create a Measure with calculate, datadd etc, but I can't get correct value due to incorrect syntax.


Measure = SUM ( 'table'[Amount] ) / CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'table'[Amount] ), FILTER('table',
DATEADD ( 'table'[Date], -364, DAY )))


How should I write it correctly?
Thanks in advance.

@PbiCeo , it will work with a date table marked as date.

example

Week Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-364,Day))

@amitchandak ,

Thanks for your advice,

Btw, is there any way to include leap year with the code you provided?
