Calculate Percentage Change With a Relative Date Slicer

I'm looking for a way to have a card visual show a percentage change but have it adjust with a relative date slicer applied to the page. I have seen previous measures for date range slicers but have not been able to find or get a measure that incorporates a relative date slicer. Essentially I want to be able to enter anything like last 7 days or last 90 days in the slicer and have the percentage change for the number of cases from that selected date range compared to the current date update. None of the previous measures I have tried have yielded anything useful, so an example would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @AnF0 

 

Create a numeric range parameter table. Assuming the name of the table created is LastXDays, the name of the automatically crate measure is also the same, create these measures. 

Last X Days = 
VAR _MaxDate =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( Dates[Date] ), ALLSELECTED ( Dates ) )
VAR _StartDate = _MaxDate - [LastXDays Value] + 1
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        [Total Revenue],
        KEEPFILTERS ( Dates[Date] >= _StartDate && Dates[Date] <= _MaxDate )
    )

Last X Days Prior = 
VAR _MaxDate =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( Dates[Date] ), ALLSELECTED ( Dates ) )
VAR _EndDate = _MaxDate - [LastXDays Value] - 1
VAR _StartDate = _EndDate - [LastXDays Value] + 1
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        [Total Revenue],
        KEEPFILTERS ( Dates[Date] >= _StartDate && Dates[Date] <= _EndDate )
    )

Last X Days Variance = 
[Last X Days] - [Last X Days Prior]

Last X Days Delta = 
DIVIDE ( [Last X Days Variance], [Last X Days Prior] )

Note: In the above example, the _MaxDate  is is the max of all the visible Dates[Date] rows. Please see the attached sample pbix.

Hi @AnF0 please try this for the previous period measure

 

SelectedDays =
DATEDIFF(MIN('Date'[Date]), MAX('Date'[Date]), DAY) + 1
 
Cases_PreviousPeriod =
VAR MinDateVisible = MIN('Date'[Date])
VAR DaysSelected = [SelectedDays]
VAR PrevPeriod =
    DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date], MinDateVisible - 1, -DaysSelected, DAY)
RETURN
CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS('cases'),
    REMOVEFILTERS('Date'),
    FILTER(
        ALL('Date'),
        'Date'[Date] IN PrevPeriod
    )
)
