Same period last year for Cumulative DAX equation

Anyone have a clue how I can calculate the following DAX equation for the same period last year?

 

Current Est Value = CALCULATE(SUMX(FILTER('table', 'table'[Created On] <=MAX('Calendar'[Date]) && (ISBLANK('table'[Close Date]) || 'table'[Close Date]>MAX('Calendar'[Date]))), ('table'[Est. Revenue])), CROSSFILTER('table'[Created On], 'Calendar'[Date], none))
 
Im at a loss!
 
Thank you 🙂

Hi @kajelliott ,

 

I am not sure how your semantic model looks like, please try the following code as shown below.

Previous Est Value =
CALCULATE (
    SUMX (
        FILTER (
            'table',
            'table'[Created On] <= MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
                && (
                    ISBLANK ( 'table'[Close Date] )
                        || 'table'[Close Date] > MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
                )
        ),
        ( 'table'[Est. Revenue] )
    ),
    CROSSFILTER ( 'table'[Created On], 'Calendar'[Date], NONE ),
    SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
)

If I've misunderstood you, please provide detailed sample data and the results you are hoping for. We can better understand the problem and help you. Show it as a screenshot or excel. Please remove any sensitive data in advance.

@kajelliott  you can use the SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR function. Modify your DAX formula as follows:

SamePeriodLastYear Est Value =
CALCULATE(
    SUMX(
        FILTER(
            ALL('table'),
            'table'[Created On]
                >= SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(MAX('Calendar'[Date]))
                && (ISBLANK('table'[Close Date]) || 'table'[Close Date] > SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(MAX('Calendar'[Date])))
        ),
        'table'[Est. Revenue]
    ),
    CROSSFILTER('table'[Created On], 'Calendar'[Date], NONE)
)
Let me know if this works for you. @ me in replies, or I'll lose your thread!!!

@DallasBaba - thanks for your suggestion!

 

Coming up with an error around the calendar date when SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR is included in the expression.

Error states 'The first argument to 'SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR' must specify a column'

 

Any thoughts?
