I currently have a table in power BI showing a long list of accounts and each account's total revenue over the most recent twelve months.
I need to add a third column to this table that shows how much revenue was lost or gained in the most recent month compared with the month prior to that.
I would also like to do the same and add a fourth column that shows how much revenue was gained or lost in the most recent quarter vs the quarter prior.
Can someone please teach me how to do this? I am obviously no expert in power BI, but I have been trying and researching for quite some time now and have not been able to figure it out. I did manage to create a seperate table showing month over month but this only shows one account at a time. I need to be able to quickly display what accounts have gained or lost the most revenue compared with the previous month / quarter. This is also a running 12 month report so when I refresh it monthly, I need it to be able to adapt to the different date span each month.
Thank you in advance for any help!!!!

Firstly DO post a summary of your problem in the forum heading and DONT set is is to "Please Help!". 😀

You need to use Calandar table with monthly and quarterly offsets.
It is then easy to calculate YTD, MTD, QTD, Previous Year, Previous Month, Previous Quater
For example
Previous quater sales = CALCULATE ( SUM(Sales[Amount]), 'calendar'[quateroffset] = -1)
