Difference between previous mont and shop
Hi, i ask a question few days ago and the answer works me very well for some things, but i need to understand how to do this.
I have a pivot table like this.
| Shops | Year | Month | Amount |
| Shop1 | 2019 | 6 | 50 |
| Shop1 | 2019 | 7 | 30 |
| shop2 | 2019 | 6 | 40 |
| Shop2 | 2019 | 7 | 20 |
And i want to make a Measure that make the difference between shop amount by months.
So measure will be like
Shop1 2019 7 20
Shop2 2019 7 20
And go on with multiple shops and differents years and months.
I search for youtube but only found with one shop, so the code works but not for me.
I understand this seems like asking to much, but i just trying my best to understand this. Sorry.
@isaac152, Use time intelligence with the date. if you don't have it, create one as
Date: date([year],[month],1)
Example
MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date])) last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH))) last month Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),previousmonth('Date'[Date])) last MTD (complete) Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(ENDOFMONTH(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))) previous month value = CALCULATE(sum('table'[total hours value]),previousmonth('Date'[Date])) diff = [MTD Sales]-[last MTD Sales] diff % = divide([MTD Sales]-[last MTD Sales],[last MTD Sales])Power BI — MTD

Make sure that you have a date calendar and that it has been marked as the date in the model view. Also, join her with the date column of her made/s. See:

amitchandak Hi and thanks for asnwer me, your code was right and works. But i have another question if you dont mind. Can i make this measure called "difference" become a colum? because i dont need variation with other things. Is this possible?

Is the pivot table your rawdata or it's the visual table in powerbi? What's your rawdata looks like?
