A- Green: 1-  % Total sales variance from previous day.

                 2-  Total sales of the day vs budget.

B-Blue: 3- Estimated month en close. (Acumulated amount+ Avereage sales * (Days in month-current day))

Hi @Maxigut1,

 

Yes, you can use the DAX below achieve you requirement.

 

Var.Vs Previous Day = (Matrix[Sum Departments]-LOOKUPVALUE(Matrix[Sum Departments],Matrix[Month Day],Matrix[Month Day]-1))/LOOKUPVALUE(Matrix[Sum Departments],Matrix[Month Day],Matrix[Month Day]-1)

 

Daily Total VS Daily Budget = Matrix[Sum Departments]-Matrix[Total Budget]

 

Estimated month end  = Matrix[Acumulated]+(Matrix[Acumulated]/Matrix[Month Day])*(Matrix[Days in month]-Matrix[Month Day])
