Blank Year over Year Column

Make sure your column Shipments[Date] is of type date value!

If you don't want to work with a separate date table and relate that table to your fact table you can still make it work by doing this instead:

Use Shipments[Date] directly in your visualization instead of using the calculations YEAR(..) and MONTH(...)

Power BI will create a date hierarchy for you automatically. 

Change the meassure for RevLastYear to: CALCULATE([SumRevenue],DATEADD(Shipments[Date].[Date],-1,YEAR))

That should give you what you are looking for.

Hi Anonymous,

You can use below formula to get the previous years' total.

Pervious Year Total =
var currDate=MAX([Date])
return
SUMX(FILTER(ALL(Shipments),Shipments[Date]>=DATE(YEAR(currDate)-1,1,1)&&Shipments[Date]<=DATE(YEAR(currDate)-1,12,31)&&MONTH([Date])=MONTH(currDate)),[Total Revenue])

Pervious Year(Month/Year) =
SUMX(FILTER(ALL(Shipments),Shipments[Date]>=DATE(MAX([Year])-1,1,1)&&Shipments[Date]<=DATE(MAX([Year])-1,12,31)&&[Month]=MAX([Month])),[Total Revenue])

Result:
