Help with trending on cards please

Hello, I was hoping someone could help me please.

 

I have a column called TYPE and this is filtered by month and then counted. So for example in May, Type A featured 10 times, Type B featured 7 times etc etc

 

Is there a way I can have a card to show on a rolling day to day basis which Type is increasing being the highest and another card showing what Type is decreasing (i/e getting better)?

 

So for example today Type D is on the increase and Type A is on the decrease

Is that possbile please?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated

 

Thank you

  • Hi Pricey79 ,

     

    Yes, it is possible to create cards that show which Type is increasing and which is decreasing on a rolling day-to-day basis.

    You can create two separate cards, one for the increasing Type and one for the decreasing Type, and use a combination of filters, formulas, and visualizations to display the data.

    Here is my sample:

    Please try:

     

    Increase = 
    var _a = SUMMARIZE('Table','Table'[Type],"Today",CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Type]),FILTER('Table',[Date]=TODAY()&&[Type]=EARLIER('Table'[Type]))),"Pre_Day",CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Type]),FILTER('Table',[Date]=TODAY()-1&&[Type]=EARLIER('Table'[Type]))))
    var _b = FILTER(_a,[Pre_Day]<[Today])
    return CONCATENATEX(_b,[Type],",")
    
    Decrease = 
    var _a = SUMMARIZE('Table','Table'[Type],"Today",CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Type]),FILTER('Table',[Date]=TODAY()&&[Type]=EARLIER('Table'[Type]))),"Pre_Day",CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Type]),FILTER('Table',[Date]=TODAY()-1&&[Type]=EARLIER('Table'[Type]))))
    var _b = FILTER(_a,[Pre_Day]>[Today])
    return CONCATENATEX(_b,[Type],",")

     

    Final output:

      v-jianboli-msft thank you so much for taking the time to reply. 
      Apologies, I should have mentioned before, the date is a sperate table called Calendar. Will that still work?

       

      Thank you

        Hi Pricey79 ,

         

        What does your raw data look like? Does the Calendar table have any relationship with your fact table?

        Do you have a slicer in your report that uses data from the Calendar table.

        Sorry for that the information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please share more details to help us clarify your scenario?

        Please provide me with more details about your table and your problem or share me with your pbix file after removing sensitive data.
