M dates

Hi, 

How I do in power query write out previous year to date? 

 

I have a Year to date flag using date.isinyeartodate(app_date). I just want the same thing but for last year. Any ideas please?

pls try this

Date.IsInCurrentYear(
    Date.AddYears(  [app_date],1)
     ) = true and  [app_date] <=  Date.AddYears(Date.From( DateTime.LocalNow()),-1)
