Measures for Customer Trends

Hi,

I would appreciate assistance in solving the percentage Month on Month (MoM) growth, percentage Year on Year (YoY) growth and percentage of 3 month average. Below is the table where the input is what is the raw data while the output is the desired measures. Also with numerous different Customers like Cust_1, Cust_2…… should the measures hold per customer.

Hi @norbi

 

Try this Measure for MoM

 

MoM =
DIVIDE (
    SUM ( TableName[Vol] ),
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( TableName[Vol] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[Name] ),
            TableName[Date] = PREVIOUSMONTH ( VALUES ( TableName[Date] ) )
        )
    )
)
    - 1

@norbi

 

This Measure for YoY

 

YoY =
DIVIDE (
    SUM ( TableName[Vol] ),
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( TableName[Vol] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[Name] ),
            YEAR ( TableName[Date] )
                = YEAR ( SELECTEDVALUE ( TableName[Date] ) ) - 1
                && MONTH ( TableName[Date] ) = MONTH ( SELECTEDVALUE ( TableName[Date] ) )
        )
    )
)
    - 1

@norbi

 

Final one

 

% of 3 month_average =
DIVIDE (
    SUM ( TableName[Vol] ),
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( TableName[Vol] ),
        DATESINPERIOD ( TableName[Date], SELECTEDVALUE ( TableName[Date] ), -3, MONTH )
    )
)

Hi @Zubair_Muhammad,

 

Thank you for the feedback it works well, however how would you achieve the sum of the Customers if there are more than one in a month? E.g.

Date

Name

Vol

Jan-16

Cust_1

3

Jan-16

Cust_2

4

Jan-16

Cust_3

1

Jan-16

Cust_4

2

Feb-16

Cust_1

2

Feb-16

Cust_2

1

Feb-16

Cust_3

3

Feb-16

Cust_4

6

…..

 

 

Hi @norbi

 

Just Replace

 

ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[Name] )

 

With

 

ALL (TableName)

Hi @Zubair_Muhammad,

 

How would the average work for the three month average as numerous Cust_* need to be added together and then averaged per month?

% of 3 month_average =
DIVIDE (
    SUM ( TableName[Vol] ),
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( TableName[Vol] ),
        DATESINPERIOD ( TableName[Date], SELECTEDVALUE ( TableName[Date] ), -3, MONTH )
    )
)

 

HI @norbi

 

See the Addition in Red font

 

% of 3 month_average =
DIVIDE (
    SUM ( TableName[Vol] ),
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( TableName[Vol] ),
        ALL ( TableName ),
        DATESINPERIOD ( TableName[Date], SELECTEDVALUE ( TableName[Date] ), -3, MONTH )
    )
)

 

 

Hi @Zubair_Muhammad

 

Thank you or the feedback. When I try the formula with multiple entries for the month it averages every value and over three months. I would like to sum the entire month of data for all customer and the average only on the monthly totals for 3 months? Your assistance will be highly appreciated.

Hi Norbi,

Could you paste some data with multiple customers and multiple dates and result you expect?
