Percentage Change and Value Difference

Hi Everyone, I am trying to calculate Percentage Change and Value Difference group by ID in the Power BI report. Please suggest the optimal way to do it. Thanks a lot.

 

Original Table:

hi @Meghbajaj 

try to add two columns like this:

Salary Change 2 = 
VAR _id = [ID]
VAR _date = [Effective Date]
VAR _table =
FILTER(TableName, TableName[ID]=_id)
VAR _datepre =
MAXX(
    FILTER(_table, TableName[Effective Date]<_date),
    TableName[Effective Date]
)
VAR _salarypre =
MINX(
    FILTER(_table, TableName[Effective Date]=_datepre),
    TableName[Salary]
)
RETURN
IF( _salarypre<>BLANK(), [Salary] - _salarypre)

Percent Change  2 = 
VAR _id = [ID]
VAR _date = [Effective Date]
VAR _table =
FILTER(TableName, TableName[ID]=_id)
VAR _datepre =
MAXX(
    FILTER(_table, TableName[Effective Date]<_date),
    TableName[Effective Date]
)
VAR _salarypre =
MINX(
    FILTER(_table, TableName[Effective Date]=_datepre),
    TableName[Salary]
)
RETURN
IF( _salarypre<>BLANK(), DIVIDE( [Salary] - _salarypre, _salarypre))

 

it worked like this:
