Hi,
If there is also a Date column available in your dataset, then you should create a relatiosnhip between this Date column and the Date column of your Calendar Table. In the Calendar Table, write the following calculated column formulas to extract the Year and Month
Year=year(Calendar[Date])
Month=FORMAT(Calendar[Date],"mmmm")
In your visual, drag Year and Month from the Calendar Table. Then write this measure
[Proposals Count]-CALCULATE([Proposals Count],SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(Calendar[Date]))
Hope this helps.

Hi Ashish.
It works perfectly! Would it be possible to leave out the difference for 2017 as it is the same value as the count?

Hi,
I don't think that is possible.
