HELP ME PLEASE
Hello, I need support with a problem.
I have the sum of 2019 sales per month, but I need to make a comparison with the sum of 2020 sales for the current month.
That is, if today is 10/8/2020, in my 2019 graph it should show the sum of sales per month but in the month of October it should only be added until 10/8/2019 and the rest of the months that continue to be calculated from normal way.
2019
|Month | Total sales |
| jan | xxxx |
| feb | xxxx |
| mar | xxxx |
| apr | xxxx |
| may | xxxx |
| jun | xxxx |
| jul | xxxx |
| ago | xxxx |
| set | xxxx |
| oct | xxxx | ----> how to show total sales until 8th october 2019, the last months are calcutated from normal way
| nov | xxxx |
| dec | xxxx |
2020
|Month | Total sales |
| jan | xxxx |
| feb | xxxx |
| mar | xxxx |
| apr | xxxx |
| may | xxxx |
| jun | xxxx |
| jul | xxxx |
| ago | xxxx |
| set | xxxx |
| oct | xxxx | ---> but this day is current date, for example 8th october 2020
Hi Anonymous ,
Please refer to my .pbix file.
Since today is October 12th, October 2019 will only calculate the value before the 12th.

Anonymous Try this measure:
Sales Prev Year =
VAR _stopdate = today()
RETURN
SUMX (
'Date',
CALCULATE (
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Date'[Date] ) >= _stopdate,
BLANK (),
CALCULATE ( [Sales], SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR ( 'Date'[Date] ) )
)
)
)EDIT: replaced LASTNONBLANK ( 'Date'[Date], [Sales] ) with TODAY(), as that lastnonblank() took out more data than intended.
thanks DataZoe but I don't know
