9 years agoI was asked by my management to show comparision between Last week and present week. But, My probelm is, I am fetching data directly from Oracle Server. So, When I refresh the data, all the data will become latest.

9 years agoHi rocky09,
Do you have date columns in the tables you are collecting from Oracle?
Eg, do you collect Sales data where there is a column that carries the datetime of the transaction?
If any of your tables have a Datetime column you can create measures in Power BI to show this over time as well as make comparisons.
If you aren't getting date info in your data then it makes it a little hard.
