I have sales data dating back 3 years. An input I use to determine upcoming sales is to look at upoming weeks sales from previous year. I would like to be able to look at 2019, 2018, 2017 sales history which is easy to do. The catch is I would like to be able to use todays date for 2019 and look at the next 2 to 4 weeks data in a table. I have a date table. I also have sales history by date for the past 3 years.
Today is 2/20/2020. I would like to be able to pull data from 2/20/2019 forward 2 weeks (or 4 weeks). As the current date changes I want to always be able to look at the forward looking data from a year ago. So tomorrow is 2/21/2020 so I would like to see the next 2 or 4 weeks from 2/21/2019.
I hope this makes sense.
Appreciate the help.
Hi @NSain1
Please try this as a measure. Replace The table and column names with the actual ones.
Sales in 4 Weeks LY =
VAR _4WeeksLY =
//current date + 28 days, go back to 12 months ago
EDATE ( MAX ( 'Fact'[Dates] ) + 28, -12 )
VAR TomorrowLY =
//current date + 1 day, go back to 12 months ago
EDATE ( MAX ( 'Fact'[Dates] ) + 1, -12 )
RETURN
//calculate sales for all the dates within _4WeeksLY and TomorrowLY
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Fact'[SalesAmount] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Fact'[Dates] ),
'Fact'[Dates] >= TomorrowLY
&& 'Fact'[Dates] <= _4WeeksLY
)
)
