Measure for Net Sales YTD Previous Year & Net Sales YTD 2 years ago

Hi everyone,

 

I need some help with measures for Net Sales YTD PY (=Net Sales YTD Previous Year) and Net Sales YTD PY-1 (Net Sales YTD 2 years ago). For example, when filtering on 'Year = 2022' and 'Month = 1 till 9") the above measures should graphically display the YTD figures of 2021 and 2020 until September, respectively. Below is what I have so far..

 

- Net Sales YTD PY =
VAR first_date = FIRSTDATE(DATEADD('Invoice Date'[DateFull],-1,YEAR))
VAR last_date = LASTDATE(DATEADD('Invoice Date'[DateFull],-1,YEAR))
RETURN
IF(
    ISBLANK(first_date) || ISBLANK(last_date),
    BLANK(),
    CALCULATE([Net Sales],
    DATESBETWEEN('Invoice Date'[DateFull],first_date,last_date)))
 
- Net Sales YTD PY-1 =
VAR first_date = FIRSTDATE(DATEADD('Invoice Date'[DateFull],-2,YEAR))
VAR last_date = LASTDATE(DATEADD('Invoice Date'[DateFull],-2,YEAR))
RETURN
IF(
    ISBLANK(first_date) || ISBLANK(last_date),
    BLANK(),
    CALCULATE([Net Sales],
    DATESBETWEEN('Invoice Date'[DateFull],first_date,last_date)))
 
Thanks in advance!

YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date],"12/31"))
Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year),"12/31"))

 

2nd Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-2,Year),"12/31"))

 

YTD =
var _max = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , today())
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1*MONTH(_max))+1
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))

 

LYTD =
var _max1 = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , today())
var _max = Date(Year(_max1)-1, Month(_max1), Day(_max1))
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1*MONTH(_max))+1
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))

 

 

2 LYTD =
var _max1 = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , today())
var _max = Date(Year(_max1)-2, Month(_max1), Day(_max1))
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1*MONTH(_max))+1
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))

 

or

 

YTD =
var _max = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , MAXX(allselecetd('Date'), 'Date'[Date]))
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1*MONTH(_max))+1
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))

LYTD =
var _max1 = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , MAXX(allselecetd('Date'), 'Date'[Date]))
var _max = Date(Year(_max1)-1, Month(_max1), Day(_max1))
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1*MONTH(_max))+1
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.
