    Hi ngongocnam ,

     

    As far as I know, Power BI is a "read only" system so it doesn't have the ability to store previous data beyond a refresh. 

     

    You can try to keep the previous data and new data in your data source at the same time, then have Power BI read in the source data and the snapshot, then do the comparison.

     

    Best Regards,
    Rico Zhou
