Need help in DAX in Line Chart

Experts, please help me on DAX column for sorting the current year & previous year.

The scenario is, we have one date column which holds the data for last 365 days and we have a requirement to show 2 lines on the Y-Axix i.e. one is for current year & previous year for comparing both year values. But, unfortunatley when we see on the current date it it is broken the line for previous year. please help?

How you want to show the value from last year when your data are missing there?!
Example: 01.02.2023 -> 01.02.2022 but your mininum Date in 2022 ist 02.03.2022!
THIS DO NOT WORK ! 🙂 
Possible is something like this. To bring both line together is not possible of missing data!

Experts, please help me on this. The dark blue line in breaking due to there is no value populated in the date column i.e 03/01/2022 which causes the breaking. please suggest?

I see the problem. You want to compate both years, right? 
You can not us than the regular date field MM/DD/YYYY. and also as a legend the year flag.
If you want to compare both years, i can fix it. 🙂

Yes @andhiii079845 please help on this. I didn't get any resolution sofar on this, please help tp compare both years with the given dates.

 

Thanks,

Bala

I can not open the old .pbi again in the moment.
One way: You can create a new column only for MM/DD not YYYY/MM/DD(!) and one column for year YYYY. Put MM/DD in the x-axis and YYYY in the legend.  Then you are able to see both lines for the years.
