Hi guys,

2. 
Previous Year Total Sales= CALCULATE([# sales], Calendario[Year]=2021)

Hi, @JM_DAX 

 

I briefly simulated some data that I hope fits your situation.

Measure:

this year sales until today = 
CALCULATE (
    [#sales],
    FILTER ( ALL ( Calendario ), Calendario[Year] = 2022 && [Date] <= TODAY () )
)
last year sales until today-1 = 
Var PreviousYearTotalSales = CALCULATE([#sales],FILTER(ALL(Calendario),[Year]=2021))
Var thisyearsalesuntiltoday = 
CALCULATE (
    [#sales],
    FILTER ( ALL ( Calendario ), Calendario[Year] = 2022 && [Date] <TODAY ()-1 )
)
return
PreviousYearTotalSales+thisyearsalesuntiltoday

Previous YTD Sales = CALCULATE( [#sales], 
SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR( DATESBETWEEN( 'Calendario'[Date], DATE(YEAR(TODAY()), 1, 1), TODAY() - 1) )
)
