QTD Chg , YTD Chg and also difference between current quarter and previous quarter

Hi All- 

Hoping to get help on this calculation. After creating a proper date table, on tryin to calculate the difference between Current Quarter and Previous Quarter,  YTD Chg and QTD Chg, my result kept populating 0.00%. 

 

Below are my codes for all 3 calculations. 

This is the code to find the difference between the current quarter and previous quarter

 

QoQ diff =
VAR CurrentYearQuarter =
MAX ( 'Date'[Year Quarter Number] )
VAR CurrentSale =
SUM ('ICC Reports'[%] )
VAR LastSale =
CALCULATE (
SUM ('ICC Reports'[%] ),
REMOVEFILTERS ('Date'),
'Date'[Year Quarter Number] = CurrentYearQuarter
)
VAR PerviousSale =
CALCULATE (
SUM ('ICC Reports'[%] ),
REMOVEFILTERS ( 'Date' ),
'Date'[Year Quarter Number] = CurrentYearQuarter - 1
)
RETURN
IF (
HASONEVALUE ( 'Date'[Year Quarter Number] ),
CurrentSale,
PerviousSale - LastSale
)
This is the code for YTD Chg
 
YTD Chg =
IF
(

ISFILTERED('Date'[Date]),

ERROR("Time intelligence quick measures can only be grouped or filtered by the Power BI-provided date hierarchy or primary date column."),

VAR __PREV_YE = CALCULATE(SUM('ICC Reports'[Decimal]), DATEADD('ICC Reports'[Date].[Date], -Quarter(SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date])), QUARTER))

RETURN

DIVIDE(SUM('ICC Reports'[Decimal]) - __PREV_YE__PREV_YE)

)
 
 
Thank you.

@RilwanFlame , Can you try time intelligence functions and try

 

QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(('Date'[Date])))
Last QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER)))

Last QUARTER Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD( ENDOFQUARTER(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER))))
Last QUARTER Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),PREVIOUSQUARTER(('Date'[Date])))

 

 

YOY

 

YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date],"12/31"))
Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year),"12/31"))
This year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR('Date'[Date]),"12/31"))
Last year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year)),"12/31"))
YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),previousyear('Date'[Date]))
Last to last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-2,Year),"12/31"))
Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))
Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]))

 

 

or /

/Only year vs Year, not a level below

This Year = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])))
Last Year = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1))

diff = [This Year]-[Last Year ]
diff % = divide([This Year]-[Last Year ],[Last Year ])
