Dynamic calculated column in Matrix Table
- 1 year ago
hasarinfareeth you can easily use time intelligence function to compare current month value with the previous month. There are many time intelligence videos/posts on how to get previous month data. Once you have that calculation in place than you can use conditional formatting to show arrows.
As a best practice, add a date dimension in your model and use it for time intelligence calculations. Once the date dimension is added, mark it as a date table on table tools. Check the related videos on my YT channel

Hello hasarinfareeth ,
For your case, the field parameter solution is suitable. Please follow these steps:
- Create the two required measures.
- Open Power BI Desktop and navigate to the Modeling tab.
- Click on 'New Parameter (Field)' and select the two measures you created.
- Click 'OK' to automatically create a slicer.
- Finally, add the column from the table generated by the field parameter to your matrix visualization.
Below are some links that explain how to implement field parameters in detail:
