- 6 years ago
paris , you can use time intelligence and date table. example
MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date])) last year MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-12,MONTH))) Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

Appreciate your Kudos.
Hi,
Create a Calendar Table and add columns there for Year, Month name and Month number. Sort the Month Name column by the Month number. Create a relationship from the Date column of your Data Table to the Date column of the Calendar Table. To your visual, drag the Year and Month Name columns from the Calendar Table. Creae these measures:
Actuals = SUM(Data[Atual])
Actuals in same period last year = Calculate([Actuals],sameperiodlastyear(Calendar[Date]))
Hope this helps.
