Embedding automated delta calculations to scorecard widgets

Hello,

Does anyone know how to build scorecards, including any kind of delta in Power BI?

For example, I want to be able to include a date filter in my dashboard and have MoM (month-on-month) percentage up/down displaying within my scorecard. So if I pick 01/12 - 07/12 in my date filter, I'd like my delta to show the percentage difference between my selected period and the same period in the previous month (01/11 - 07/11) for instance.

Any example will be much appreciated!

Nevermind @CoreyP 
I managed to figure the measures I needed out.
Thanks anyway.

Definitely doable. The new card visual makes it easy ( err--possible. There's A LOT of settings you can play with ) to display and format multiple KPI cards according to your liking, including having a delta call out, with an icon indicator, and conditional formatting if you like. 

 

I recently worked on a project at my organization creating visuals just like this. For the arrow icons, I went with unicode icons as I found it easier to include in my DAX. 

 

All you need to do is write some measures. You'll need a measure for the delta calculation, and for the font conditional formatting and background conditional formatting, if you so desire. Here is our initial design:

If you share some sample data, and your current measures, and screenshot of your model, we can help you with writing the DAX if you need assistance.

Fab news @CoreyP !

Thanks a lot for the encouragement! 

If you can exemplify anything simple for me to pick the logic you follow based on this sample table, it'll be fantastic! 

Many thanks in advance!
