Thanks Sean for your help on this.

 

I had changed the formular.  However, I seam to have two identical lines. In other words, the fomular does not seem to alter my result.  Would you please take anther look at the screen below.

 

here is my fomular: Set Date 2015 = CALCULATE(COUNTA('Meters Sold vs Set'[Set Date]), 'DateKey'[Year] = 2015)

 

 

Thanks Sean

AndrewDang You have 2 options (each has its advantages)

 

OPTION 1

Create another Measure using the same formula just change 2015 to 2016

 

Set Date 2016 = ...... just change 2016 at the end

 

OPTON 2

You can also create (CY- Current Year and PY - Previous Year) - WATCH the results if you have Year Slicer though !!!

 

Set Date PY = CALCULATE(COUNTA('Meters Sold vs Set'[Set Date]), FILTER('DateKey', 'DateKey'[Year] = MAX('DateKey'[Year])-1))

 

Set Date CY = CALCULATE(COUNTA('Meters Sold vs Set'[Set Date]), FILTER('DateKey', 'DateKey'[Year] = MAX('DateKey'[Year])))

 

Let me know if this works!
