Previous Year DAX Calculation

Hi Team

 

Please can you help me on below issue. I have created a table like below in power bi.

By default current month selection is applied and calculated CY and PY measures like below

 

CY= CALCULATE( Sum(SalesNetAmountGBP]),Date'[CurrentDayOffset]<=0)

PY = CALCULATE([CY], SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]))
 
Issue: When i have selected 2022 full year PY measure is showing data upto 2021 december 31st instead of 2021 december 5th (today). Please can you help to write DAX for  PY measure to show last year today date data dynamically .

@amitchandak thank you for your reply. The above solution works only for complete year(2022) selection. But is breaking when we select month or quarter. The measure should be dynamic based on Date selection.
