Previous MTD

Hello,

 

the calculation for Prev MTD is like this

Last MTD = CALCULATE(sum(DAILYTRANSACTIONS[Amount]), DATEADD(DATESMTD(YEAR_MONTH_DIMENSION_TAB[Date]), -1, MONTH))

 

The value is showing if only I selected month filter as Feb 2017.

 

And for this

Prev MTD = CALCULATE(DAILYTRANSACTIONS[Amount MTD], SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(YEAR_MONTH_DIMENSION_TAB[Date]))

It shows Dec 2016 value instead of Jan 2017.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Hi @Kpower,

 

You can refer to below formula to calculate the running total and the previous running total.

 

Measures:

 

 

RunningTotal = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Amount]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Date]<=MAX('Table'[Date])))

PreviousRunningTotal = 
var temp=MAX('Table'[Date])
Return
CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Amount]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Date]<=DATE(YEAR(temp),MONTH(temp)-1,DAY(temp))))
