Hi all,
I had successfully calculated YTD values measure using standard fiscal calendar table "April to March".
I used the following Formula:
YTD Amount = Calculate(SUM(Table[Amount]), DATESYTD(Datetable[Date], "3/31")
I now need to do the same but this time using a variable fiscal year calendar table where each consecutive fiscal year ends on a different date:
I am assuming that I need to play around the interval values "3/31" but not sure what to put there...
I have done some preparation on my date table but I am not sure if it is enough to allow me to do the above.
My current date table can be found on this link as it was too big to past on here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

@Calvin69 , seem like you have a custom calendar like - https://amitchandak.medium.com/cheat-sheet-power-bi-4-4-4-and-4-4-5-calendar-786f76da7d92
Then you need year start date and day of year
Day of Year =datediff([Year Start date] , [Date],Day) +1
YTD= CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year Rank]=max('Date'[Year Rank]) && 'Date'[Day of Year] <= Max('Date'[Day of Year]) ))
LYTD = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year Rank]=max('Date'[Year Rank])-1 && 'Date'[Day of Year] <= Max('Date'[Day of Year])))
