DAX for Prediction
Hi everyone, I’m facing a challenge and would appreciate some guidance. I need to calculate a ratio based on the last three months of data and use that to predict the quantity for the next nine months.
Here’s the situation: I have two columns of data: one represents the approximate volume for the whole year, and the other contains the real-time quantity, which gets updated over time. For example, if we are currently in September, I need to calculate the ratio using data from June to August. Based on this ratio, I need to predict the real-time quantity for the upcoming nine months.
Any insights on how I can approach this would be really helpful. Thank you!

LastThreeMonthsQty =
CALCULATE(
SUM(YourData[RealTimeQuantity]),

)Calculate the Ratio
Ratio =
DIVIDE(

SUM(YourData[AnnualVolume]),

PredictedQtyNextNineMonths =
[Ratio] * SUM(YourData[AnnualVolume]) * (9 / 12) // Adjust as necessary based on your prediction logic
