    Hi MT54 ,

     

    I suggest you to try code as below to create calculated columns.

    Difference = 
VAR _1 = 0
VAR _2to5 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ),
            'Table'[Step]
                = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Step] ) - 1
        )
    )
VAR _6 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ), 'Table'[Step] = 1 )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        'Table'[Step] = 1,
        _1,
        IF ( 'Table'[Step] = 6, 'Table'[Value] - _6, 'Table'[Value] - _2to5 )
    )
    % difference = 
VAR _1 = 0
VAR _2to5 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ),
            'Table'[Step]
                = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Step] ) - 1
        )
    )
VAR _6 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ), 'Table'[Step] = 1 )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        'Table'[Step] = 1,
        _1,
        DIVIDE ( 'Table'[Difference], IF ( 'Table'[Step] = 6, _6, _2to5 ) )
    )

    Result is as below.

Hi MT54 ,

 

I suggest you to try code as below to create calculated columns.

Difference = 
VAR _1 = 0
VAR _2to5 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ),
            'Table'[Step]
                = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Step] ) - 1
        )
    )
VAR _6 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ), 'Table'[Step] = 1 )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        'Table'[Step] = 1,
        _1,
        IF ( 'Table'[Step] = 6, 'Table'[Value] - _6, 'Table'[Value] - _2to5 )
    )
% difference = 
VAR _1 = 0
VAR _2to5 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ),
            'Table'[Step]
                = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Step] ) - 1
        )
    )
VAR _6 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category] ), 'Table'[Step] = 1 )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        'Table'[Step] = 1,
        _1,
        DIVIDE ( 'Table'[Difference], IF ( 'Table'[Step] = 6, _6, _2to5 ) )
    )

Result is as below.
