Hello,
I'm a beginner with Power BI but I could not find an answer to my question. I have a database and want to show Year over Year for a metric.
My sales data is coming from 'Sales_report'. I also have created a new table 'DATE' with the formula 'calendarauto'.
I created two measures:
TOTAL SALES = Sum(sales_report[retail_qty])
LY TOTAL SALES = Calculate([TOTAL SALES], DATEADD('DATE'[DATE], -1, YEAR)
the second column does not give the value from last year, it returns the same value of current year
What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
What date field are you using in your visual?
One from your 'sales_report' table? or the one from your 'DATE' table?
That was the problem! I was using the date field from the sales_report in my visual. Now it works!
Thank you.
