    HI Manar

     

    Try this one

     

    Measure =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( ExchangeRatesFacts[ExchangeRate] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( ExchangeRatesFacts[ReportingPeriod] ),
        ExchangeRatesFacts[ReportingPeriod] = [CurrentReportingPeriod]
    )
)
    - CALCULATE (
        SUM ( ExchangeRatesFacts[ExchangeRate] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( ExchangeRatesFacts[ReportingPeriod] ),
            ExchangeRatesFacts[ReportingPeriod] = [LastReportingPeriod]
        )

Hi Zubair_Muhammad ,

 

Thanks for all of your insight in the forums. I have used your outline for my project but am unable to show any results. I have the same use case, where I need to get a variance between two months within a matrix. 

 

Here is my modified code:

 

Diff =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( Original[Tax] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( Original ),
Original[Period] = 3
)
)
- CALCULATE (
SUM ( Original[Tax] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( Original ),
Original[Period] = 2
)
)
 
I'm trying to get a difference in tax amount by month. Here is a picture of my scenario. Can you please help me? There is no error, only no data populating in a matrix.

    What if you remove the filter function?

     

    Diff =
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Original[Tax] ), Original[Period] = 3 )
    - CALCULATE ( SUM ( Original[Tax] ), Original[Period] = 2 )

    Still having the same issue with no data populating. I'm sure I'm missing something very easy but I can't figure it out. There are also no filters.
