I would like to create a measure that gives me the % of change of the select year from the previous.
The formula is
(old value-new value)/old value. The example I have is (1933-1604)/1933 which is 17.02.
However this is fairly simple to do. I used this formula
Hi,
Share your source data and show the expected result in a Table format. Once we get the correct numbers in a Table format, we can create any graph we want.
Unfortunately the table is made up of measures and concealed data. Thank you. I'll try to replicate and see how it goes.
@user35131 I'm not sure what you mean - it sounds like you already have the % difference with your YTD measure?
Can you provide screenshots or images/more detail?

@AllisonKennedy Hey i added some pictures that might be helpful. Let meknow. The one with multiple lines is good and visually how i want it to look, but when i hover i went it to be like in the second photo, but just for each line. Note that i have the year change for when I have two seperate files. I want the year to year change within the measure. Rather than have a seperate 2020 and 2021 file, i have a measure that includies 2020, 2021,2019, 2018 and so on.
