DAX Help | Parallel Period (Pbix attached)
Hi!
I am trying do a viz counting of # of hired made in a certain month, and then comparing it to the previous month..
I did a DAX calculation w. Parallel Period but I am getting the entire column total, versus the line by line..
Is this an issue with the relationship? Do I need to do a X function?
Pbix model is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mv9DTQ7o0B61Gk-6Geo1ODh6vnWanKX9/view?usp=drive_link
Thank you in advance!!

Hi Anonymous ,
According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.
(1)My test data is the same as yours.
(2) We can create a measure.
# of Hires Previous Month = var _pre=MONTH(EOMONTH(MAX('DateTable'[Date]),-1)) return CALCULATE([# of Hires],FILTER(ALL('DateTable'),MONTH('DateTable'[Date])=_pre))(3) Then the result is as follows.
