Hi,
I'm struggling with a measure that I need to create.
Our financial period runs from 01/09 to 31/08
I need to report the Current FY. For that, I'm using a Fiscal CurrYearOffset Date table field and that is working fine, however, I also need to report within our financial window of 01/09 to 31/08 for the previous year, for the same period this year. Does anyone know a way of achieving this?
Thanks,
Greg.

Hi @grega - can you try the below measure as per FYCY
Current FYTD Sales =
CALCULATE(
[Total Sales],
DATESYTD(
'Date'[Date],
"08/31"
)
)
Create another measure for FYPY
Previous FYTD Sales =
CALCULATE(
[Total Sales],
DATESYTD(
SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]),
"08/31"
)
)
Try the above logic , let know

Hi, Thanks for the response. no data is being returned when using the measure.
It looks like this is an issue with the Date Table I'm using.
