Hi All,
I am trying to get previous month values by using the below dax but getting wrong values. Can any one help in this to get the expected output. Thanks in Advance.
Dax :
Previous Month = CALCULATE(SUM(value),
ALL(Table),
PREVIOUSMONTH(Table[Date]))
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Srikantht ,
Please try create a measure with below dax formula, but you need adjust it according to your actua calculate context:
Previous month =
VAR cur_date =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Date] )
VAR _result =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( [Current Month] ),
FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), DATEDIFF ( cur_date, [Date], MONTH ) = -1 )
)
RETURN
_result
Please refer the attached .pbix file.
