How to Create a YOY Trend?
- 6 years ago
Hope you had created a date dimension and Month year view is coming from there. These measures should help. YTD can work LTYD.
And Normal measure should get potted with a year behind measure
YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(('Date'[Date Filer]))) LYTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))) Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year)))) Year Behind measure= 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.

How would like to display it finally. can you share some examples or screenshot. Not very clear as of now.
Please see my examples below. Sorry for the horrible picture formatting. But essentially I want to create the first picture, which is using my current workaround, but I was wondering if there was a bettter way of doing it since there are months where the events overlap.
The current workaround I am using, formatting the dates to 2000 and 2001No workaround used.
