I have create a previous month measure like calculate (Sum(Amount), Prevousmonth(Date) that gives me the previous month amount and i'm just subtracting amount-previousmonth amount to the difference. If you observe in the data there is no data for march for 123 in that i would like get the difference Feb to Apr. it should be like 200-400 but in my logic there is no data  for march then it considers as 0 then its give me 200-0. 

 

Please help.

Hi, @corpsikumar 

 

You can try the following methods.

Preamount =
VAR PreDate =
    MAXX (
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Table'[Entry_Date], 'Table'[Milestonenumber] ),
            [Entry_Date] < SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Entry_Date] )
                && [Milestonenumber] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Milestonenumber] )
        ),
        'Table'[Entry_Date]
    )
VAR Preamount =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[amount] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Table' ),
            [Entry_Date] = PreDate
                && [Milestonenumber] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Milestonenumber] )
        )
    )
RETURN
    Preamount
Difference = IF([Preamount]<>BLANK(),[Preamount]-SUM('Table'[amount]))
