    Hi Anonymous 

    you can do it like this:

     

     

    Price calculation = 
    VAR _PriceIndex_1 = 
        CALCULATE(
            MIN('Table'[Price]),
            FILTER(
                ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Year]),
                'Table'[Index] = 1
            )
        )
    VAR _ActualPrice = MIN('Table'[Price])
    RETURN
        DIVIDE(_ActualPrice,_PriceIndex_1)

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Based on your description, you can do some steps as follows.

     

    1. Create a calculated index column.( I created an index column in advance to mark the existing order.)

    _index =

    RANKX (

        FILTER (

            CASE,

            EARLIER ( CASE[Year] ) = CASE1[Year]

        ),

        'CASE'[Index],

        ,

        ASC

    )

     

    1. Create a ‘Price Calculation’measure.

    Measure = DIVIDE(

    MAX('CASE'[Price (Measure Above)]),

    CALCULATE(

    MAX('CASE'[Price (Measure Above)]),

    FILTER(

    ALLEXCEPT('CASE',CASE1[Year]),

    [_index]=1

    )

    )

    )

     

    Result:

     

     

    Best Regards,

    Hello All,

     

    thank you very much for your help,

     

    Fixing my DAX like this finally worked for me

     

    Price Calculation =
    VAR _PriceIndex_1 =
    CALCULATE(MINX(Contracts_Zema,[Price + Price Parameter]),
    FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('Contracts_Zema','Contracts_Zema'[Contract_Year],Contracts_Zema[Location],Contracts_Zema[Contract_Type]),
    'Contracts_Zema'[Trade_Day] = 1
    )
    )
    VAR _ActualPrice = MAXX(Contracts_Zema,[Price + Price Parameter])
    RETURN
    DIVIDE(_ActualPrice,_PriceIndex_1) -1
