Hi.
I' making a balancesheet showing figures for different accounts for a given periode and for year-to-date.
I'm using a table with all transactions (ACTR) and a tabel with dates (Datotabel) as our financial year is not following a calender year.
Relation between ACTR and DatoTabel is DatoTabel[Periode]->ACTR[ACPR].
I'm having a page filter for the periode, so filtering for a given periode is no problem.
The problem is the following:
Right now we are in periode 6. If I want to see result for periode 5, I can't figure out how to get my Year-to-date to show from period 1 to 5, and not from period 1 to 6.
I have tried with the following formula, but it is only showing periode 5 - not YTD.
Solved! Go to Solution.
If you have date and date table
YTD QTY = TOTALYTD(Sum('order'[Qty]),'Date'[Date])
LYTD QTY = TOTALYTD(Sum('order'[Qty]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,year))
Previous Year = CALCULATE(SUM('order'[Qty]), PREVIOUSYEAR('Date'[Date]))
YTD QTY forced=
var _max = today()
return
calculate(Sum('order'[Qty]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date]),'Date'[Date]<=_max)
//calculate(TOTALYTD(Sum('order'[Qty]),'Date'[Date]),filter('Date','Date'[Date]<=_max))
LYTD QTY forced=
var _max = date(year(today())-1,month(today()),day(today()))
return
CALCULATE(Sum('order'[Qty]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,year)),'Date'[Date]<=_max)
//TOTALYTD(Sum('order'[Qty]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,year),'Date'[Date]<=_max)
This Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])))
Last Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1))

Well.... that was easy. Did the trick, thanks 😉
