Hello everyone, everything good?
I need help performing a calculation that is not working.
I want to create a treemap that will show me the change in units sold compared to the previous month
I have the following DAX measurement for this variation calculation:
Divide( Units sold Current Month - Units sold Previous month;
previous month units)
And with that I have the variation of several points that sell this product.
The question I wanted to ask is the following:
I need to create buttons where, when clicking, the user can select a range of variations.
For example: By clicking on the 10% variation button, all points that vary between 5% and 10% will be displayed on the Treemap.
5% button would show the points of sale that ranged from 1% to 5% And so on.
I tried to use calculate to make these filters but it doesn't work.
Can you shed some light on how to achieve this goal?
Here is an example print:
I tried the following measure to extract the specific variation percentage from the treemap, but it doesn't work
Variation 25 % = CALCULATE( [Variation];
[Variation] > 0.10 && [Variation] <= 0.25)
@ErickReiis , what is your previous month's formula?
Example formula for current and last month
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]))
MTD =
var _max = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , today())
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1)+1 ,
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))
LMTD =
var _max1 = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , today())
var _max = date(Year(_max1), month(_max1)-1, day(_max))
var _min = eomonth(_max1,-2)+1
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))
Last Month =
var _max1 = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , today())
var _max = eomonth(_max1,-1)
var _min = eomonth(_max1,-2)+1
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))

Hello @amitchandak , I'm using the following dax measure :
Calculate( [Units Sold]; previousmonth(lastdate([Calendar].[Data])
And i have a measure about the units sold on the current month.
Calculate(Units Sold; DATESMTD(LastDate(Data))
