hi all, probably this is super easy, but i struggle with it, i need to present on below matrix table difference week over week just for the last two periods (in below between 20 and 27 march), so it basically should show me -22 etc. i did it in excel but we moved to power bi. this is a count of lines. i also have the same with sum of import.
could you please help me how to do it? i tried with calculate and max or with dates in period. but it shows me strange results.
hi @martaTr ,
if you have a weeknum column in your dataset, that maybe used. ( for more context: How to Calculate Week over Week Change in Power BI (youtube.com)
OR,
you could explore if the (52) Calculate Growth From Previous Non Consecutive Date - YouTube may be a better fit.
Another alternative maybe to explore DATEADD function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
Kindly provide a sample input table masking sensitive data if this doesn't work for you.
thank you, it seems like it's working, however i am wondering how can i this new metric WoW add to the table.
Here is my formula:
Measure3 =
VAR LastDate1 =
MAXX ( ALLSELECTED ( Affinity[As of Date] ), Affinity[As of Date] )
VAR LastSales =
CALCULATE (
COUNT ( [Importo] ),
FILTER ( ALL ( Affinity[As of Date] ), Affinity[As of Date] = LastDate1 )
)
VAR PrevDate =
MAXX (
FILTER ( ALL ( Affinity[As of Date] ), 'Affinity'[As of Date] < LastDate1 ),
Affinity[As of Date]
)
VAR PrevSales =
CALCULATE (
COUNT ( [Importo] ),
FILTER ( ALL ( Affinity[As of Date] ), Affinity[As of Date] = PrevDate )
)
RETURN
IF ( ISBLANK ( PrevDate ), BLANK (), LastSales - PrevSales )
Unfortunately it doesnt work when i normally add it to columns/ rows/values.Now it's in seprate table hidden under a main one which doesnt look good and it 's completely impractical. Any ideas how to present that metric? maybe other chart?
