Amend current DAX Measure to give previous month values

Hi Experts

 

how can i change the following measure to give me previous month

P1 Emergency KPI =
VAR ClosedP1Jobs = CALCULATE(COUNT('All Data'[WO No]), filter('All Data', and('All Data'[Priority]="e", month('All Data'[Report Date]) = month(now())) && 'All Data'[Source Table] = "completed"))

VAR p1JobsMTD = CALCULATE(count('All Data'[WO No]), filter('All Data', and('All Data'[Priority]="e", and(or('All Data'[Source Table] = "Reactive", 'All Data'[Source Table] = "Completed"), month('All Data'[Report Date]) = month(now() )))))

return closedp1Jobs/p1JobsMTd

Hi  @Anonymous ,

I created some data:

vyangliumsft_0-1675412904591.png

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Create measure.

P1 Emergency KPI =
VAR ClosedP1Jobs =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'All Data'[WO No] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'All Data' ),
            AND (
                'All Data'[Priority] = "e",
                'All Data'[Report Date]
                    >= DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY () ) - 1, 1 )
                    && 'All Data'[Report Date]
                        <= EOMONTH ( DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY () ) - 1, 1 ), 0 )
                    && 'All Data'[Source Table] = "completed"
            )
        )
    )
VAR p1JobsMTD =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'All Data'[WO No] ),
        FILTER (
            'All Data',
            OR (
                'All Data'[Source Table] = "Reactive",
                'All Data'[Source Table] = "Completed"
            )
                && AND (
                    'All Data'[Report Date]
                        >= DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY () ) - 1, 1 ),
                    'All Data'[Report Date]
                        <= EOMONTH ( DATE ( YEAR ( TODAY () ), MONTH ( TODAY () ) - 1, 1 ), 0 )
                        && 'All Data'[Priority] = "e"
                )
        )
    )
RETURN
    DIVIDE ( ClosedP1Jobs, p1JobsMTD )

2. Result:

@Anonymous , if you need based on today

 

MTD Today =
var _min = eomonth(today(),-1)+1
var _max = today()
return
CALCULATE([Net], FILTER('Date','Date'[Date] >=_min && 'Date'[Date] <= _max))

LMTD Today=
var _min = eomonth(today(),-2)+1
var _max1 = today()
var _max = date(year(_max1),month(_max1)-1, day(_max1))
return
CALCULATE([Net], FILTER('Date','Date'[Date] >=_min && 'Date'[Date] <= _max))

LYMTD Today =
var _min = eomonth(today(),-13)+1
var _max1 = today()-1
var _max = date(year(_max1)-1,month(_max1), day(_max1))
return CALCULATE([Net], FILTER('Date','Date'[Date] >=_min && 'Date'[Date] <= _max))

MTD Yesterday =
var _max = today() -1
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1)+1
return CALCULATE([Net], FILTER('Date','Date'[Date] >=_min && 'Date'[Date] <= _max))

This Month Today =
var _min = eomonth(today(),-1)+1
var _max = eomonth(today(),0)
return CALCULATE([Net], FILTER('Date','Date'[Date] >=_min && 'Date'[Date] <= _max))

Last Month Today =
var _min = eomonth(today(),-2)+1
var _max = eomonth(today(),-1)
return CALCULATE([Net], FILTER('Date','Date'[Date] >=_min && 'Date'[Date] <= _max))

Same Month Last Year Today =
var _min = eomonth(today(),-13)+1
var _max = eomonth(today(),-12)
return CALCULATE([Net], FILTER('Date','Date'[Date] >=_min && 'Date'[Date] <= _max))

 

 

 

If you need based on selected date use time intelligence

MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))
last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))
last month Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),previousmonth('Date'[Date]))
MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))
last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))
last month Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),previousmonth('Date'[Date]))

 

 

Or try offset -
