2.Create a fiscal calendar, starting with May of each year.

Calendar =
ADDCOLUMNS (
    CALENDARAUTO ( 4 ),
    "Fiscal year",
        VAR fy =
            IF (
                MONTH ( [Date] ) <= 4,
                VALUE ( FORMAT ( [Date], "YY" ) ) - 1,
                VALUE ( FORMAT ( [Date], "YY" ) )
            )
        RETURN
            CONCATENATE ( "FY ", fy )
)

3.Create a Fiscal year table by entering data.

5.Create a measure to filter the current year and the previous year.

Measure = 
VAR _year =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Fiscal year'[FY] )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ),
        FILTER (
            'Calendar',
            [Fiscal year] = _year
                || [Fiscal year]
                    = "FY "
                        & RIGHT ( _year, 2 ) - 1
        )
    )
v

 

6.Put the measure into the Values of the matrix. The result is this.
