    Hi stribor45 ,

     

    Hope all is going well.

     

    To achieve your needs please follow these steps:

     

    1. Create a measure that checks if the previous year's data is empty. This is done to filter out rows that have no data for the previous year.

    measure = ISBLANK([Table])

     

    2. After selecting the visual object, in the "Filter" pane on the right, apply measure as a filter to the current visual object. Set the filter condition to display data when the value of "measure" is FALSE.

     

    If you want to learn more, please refer to the following documents:

    If you have any questions or need help, please feel free to contact me.
