Return data from specified time interval in all rows in a calculated column

 

Hi !

My Data:-

YearMonth CY2018
2019     Jan,19        784003.6     
2020Jan,20796923 
2021Jan,21912686.3 
2018Jan,18754578.3 

I want to return year 2018 CY Value i.e. 754578 in 2018 Column in all rows.
The calculation should be based on latest month for e.g.
MAX(Month),dateadd(month,-3,year)
So, here I want to find from Jan, 2021, to 3 years prior data.
I tried with this options but not working.

Thanks in advance !

Hi,

This calculated column formula works

CALCULATE(SUM(Data[CY]),FILTER(Data,Data[Month]=EDATE(MAX(Data[Month]),-36)&&Data[Month]=EDATE(MAX(Data[Month]),-36)))

Hope this helps.

Hi @daxer-almighty ,
Its not returning the correct value.

Your formula is different than mine. That's the first thing. Secondly, you asked about the year 2018. This is what I gave you. The month you put in my formula must be the plain month without the year attached, of course. Please create a column that will store just the plain month as a number (1,...,12) or a name.

Hi,

What exactly is your end objective?  Also, why are you writing this as a calculated column formula (and not as a measure)?

This is the requirement of the client....If u want u can solve this with measure....I will try to convert it into columns
