Hover showing two years as visual

 

Hi all,

 

I really need your help please.

I have a table visual which has data in columns from 3 data sets, which is connected to year slicer.

 

I have been asked to add a hover with bar chart visual showing 2 years. I was able to create a bar chart with current year but I am unable to do one with previous year.

 

Could you please help, I've added my files to the below link. Would greatly appreacite your help. Thanks.

Both the solutions provided by Allison and WangBT are brilliant and I have learned interesting DAX measures. Thank you both very much. I'd like to accept both your responses as solutions.

@PXJ99 , I may provide another solution, not sure whether it is what you want. 😀

This is much easier with a proper date table. I have converted your Month and Year columns into a start of month column. Would rather do this in data source or Power Query, but used DAX so I didn't need to connect to your excel files.

 

I then added my date table: https://excelwithallison.blogspot.com/2020/04/dimdate-what-why-and-how.html 

 

Finally, created a measure for Prior Year:

 

 

 

 

Actuals Prior Year =
CALCULATE(SUM(Actuals[Actuals]), DATEADD(Dates_DIM[Date], -1, YEAR))
 
 
 
Other option is to turn off the 'Keep all filters' on your tooltip page and then you can still access all the years. I put 'Year' in the 'small multiples' for Tooltip 2 page:
