Hi.
I have created a sample table below for reference.
I need to create a line chart. How can I create a measure to only display the last 3 years of records (complete cycles) from the current year?
Thank you in advance.

HI @AjithPrasath ,
Based on your input and the available samples, I create the measure below to get the value.
Last 3 Years =
VAR _currentyear = YEAR(TODAY())
VAR _previousyear = SELECTEDVALUE(test_last3years[Year])
RETURN
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
_previousyear <= _currentyear -1 &&
_previousyear >= _currentyear -3,1,
0
)

Hi @NickzNickz ,
create a measure to determine the current year. You can use the TODAY() function to get the current date and extract the year from it
Current Year = YEAR(TODAY())
Now, create a measure that calculates the last 3 years from the current year. Let's name this measure "Last 3 Years"
Last 3 Years = IF([Year] >= [Current Year] - 3 && [Year] <= [Current Year], 1, 0)
Finally, use the "Last 3 Years" measure as a filter in your line chart visual. Set the filter to include only the records where the measure evaluates to 1.
If I answered your question, please mark my post as solution, Appreciate your Kudos 👍
I have successfully created the measure for Year.
For measure #2, how can I get the column [Year] .... ?
For that, use the year column in your table===> 'Tablename'[year]

IF you want to use simplified code , you can use the below code :
Last 3 Years =
VAR _currentyear = YEAR(TODAY())
VAR _previousyear = SELECTEDVALUE(test_last3years[Year])
RETURN
IF(_previousyear >= _currentyear - 3 && _previousyear <= _currentyear - 1, 1, 0)
