Hi All,
Need help in Calculate previous year total amount for current year . I have Year and current year amount in source. Need Previous year amount to be derived .
| Year | Current year Amount | Previous year Amount |
| 2018 | 100 | |
| 2019 | 200 | 100 |
| 2020 | 300 | 200 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @AOD
It is solved by calculation column. First calculate the year of the previous year, and then output the total amount of the previous year.
Previous year =
DATEADD ( 'Table'[Year], -1, YEAR )
Previous year Amount =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( 'Table'[Current year Amount] ),
FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Year] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Previous year] ) )
)

@AOD , If you need this as a new column
last year = sumx(filter(Table, [Year] = earlier([Year]) -1) , [Current year] )
for measure prefer to have separate year table(say Date) joined to this table
Curr Year = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[THis year]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])))
Last Year = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[THis year]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1))
