Block difference

Good afternoon! I use the formula to get the difference between the current quarter and the last 

TOTALQTD(SUM('Свод 21'[Количество изделий всего,шт]),'Свод 21'[Датавыдачи])-CALCULATE(TOTALQTD(SUM('Свод 21'[Количество изделий всего,шт]),'Свод 21'[Датавыдачи]),DATEADD('календарь'[Date],-1,QUARTER))

discovered that the formula in the 1st quarter subtracts from the 4th quarter of the same year, help me figure out if it is possible to set the conditions under which it will give out 0 if it is 1 quarter?

Hi @DeEviloN ,

 

Please check you data model. Here I create a sample to have a test.

Summary 21:

calendar:

calendar =
ADDCOLUMNS (
    CALENDARAUTO (),
    "Year", YEAR ( [Date] ),
    "Qtr",
        "Qtr" & " "
            & QUARTER ( [Date] )
)

Relationship:

You can try this measure to get result.

Diff between Current Qtr and Last Qtr = 
VAR _SUMMARIZE =
    SUMMARIZE (
        'calendar',
        'calendar'[Qtr],
        "DIFF",
            VAR _DIFF =
                TOTALQTD ( SUM ( 'Summary 21'[Number of items total,pcs] ), 'Summary 21'[Date] )
                    - CALCULATE (
                        TOTALQTD ( SUM ( 'Summary 21'[Number of items total,pcs] ), 'Summary 21'[Date] ),
                        DATEADD ( 'calendar'[Date], -1, QUARTER )
                    )
            RETURN
                IF ( 'calendar'[Qtr] = "Qtr 1", 0, _DIFF )
    )
RETURN
    SUMX ( _SUMMARIZE, [DIFF] )

Result is as below.
