Hi @Naveennegi119,

One more way to do it. 

 

1. Add a Index column in Query Editor.

2. Add Below formula in a Calculated column.

 

Inc/Dec =
VAR PervValue =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( Table2[Value] ),
        FILTER ( Table2, Table2[Index] = EARLIER ( Table2[Index] ) - 1 )
    )
VAR prevID =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( Table2[ID] ),
        FILTER ( Table2, Table2[Index] = EARLIER ( Table2[Index] ) - 1 )
    )
VAR PerValueRev =
    IF ( LEFT ( Table2[ID], 3 ) <> LEFT ( Table2[prevID], 3 ), BLANK (), PervValue )
RETURN
    IF (
        PerValueRev = BLANK (),
        BLANK (),
        IF ( Table2[Value] > PerValueRev, "increase", "decrease" )
    )

First add an index colum from Query Editor

Then you can use this column

 

Column =
VAR previousvalue =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( Table1[Value] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[ID] ), [Index] = EARLIER ( [Index] ) - 1 )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        previousvalue <> BLANK (),
        IF ( [Value] > previousvalue, "Increase", "decrease" )
    )

Try this calculated column

 

Column =
VAR UniqueKey =
    LEFT ( [ID], 3 )
VAR myindex =
    VALUE ( RIGHT ( [ID], 1 ) )
VAR previousvalue =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( Table1[Value] ),
        FILTER (
            Table1,
            LEFT ( [ID], 3 ) = UniqueKey
                && VALUE ( RIGHT ( [ID], 1 ) )
                    = myindex - 1
        )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        previousvalue <> BLANK (),
        IF ( [Value] > previousvalue, "Increase", "decrease" )
    )

Hi @Zubair_Muhammad,
