Same period Previous Year for the selected Dates

[Tanyag]

I am trying to write a DAX  to filter the Data for the same periof prior year.  I could write DAX for current year  and tried using "samepreiod lastear" but it doesnt give me required result.  Can someone help me apply the logic

Where as 

MinMax = CALCULATE(MIN('Sales'[Actual Ship Date]),ALLSELECTED(Sales[Actual Ship Date]))

MaxMDate = CALCULATE(MAX(Sales[Actual Ship Date]),ALLSELECTED(Sales[Actual Ship Date]))

Time-intelligence requires a proper Date table. You can't get away without it.

Thanks @amitchandak @Greg_Deckler   I was able to resolve it using https://bielite.com/blog/last-12-months-from-selected-date-trailing-12-months-ttm/

@Tanyag , You need to use date table for that. You can also use trailing year measure

example

Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))

Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]))

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :
