    Hi spandy34 ,

     

    If [Previous Performance] and [Current Performance] are measures, you can use them directly.

    If [Previous Performance] and [Current Performance] are columns, you need to use SUM()/MAX()/MIN() function to use them. Measure will return aggregation.

    Measure:

    Diff in Per No Previous =
    IF (
        ISBLANK ( SUM ( 'TableName'[Previous Performance] ) ),
        0,
        SUM ( 'TableName'[Current Performance] )
            - SUM ( 'TableName'[Previous Performance] )
    )

     

    Best Regards,
