    Thanks amitchandak  but your Work Date Cont column gives today date (Monday) for today record as Previous Work Day. 

     

    I got the solution. Now PrevWorkDay column gives Friday as Previous Work Day for Saturday, Sunday and Monday records.

     

     

     

     

    PreviousWorkDay = 
var a = Hoja1[Date]
RETURN CALCULATE(MAX(Hoja1[Date]); FILTER(ALL(Hoja1); Hoja1[Date] < a && Hoja1[WorkingDay] = 1))

aramirez2 , You need few columns in date table

 

Work Day = if(WEEKDAY([Date],2)>=6,0,1)
Work Date = if(WEEKDAY([Date],2)>=6,BLANK(),[Date])
Work Date Cont = if([Work Day]=0,maxx(FILTER('Date',[Date]<EARLIER([Date]) && [Work Day]<> EARLIER([Work Day]) ),[Date]),[Date])
Work Date cont Rank = RANKX(ALL('Date'),[Work Date Cont],,ASC,Dense)
Work day of month = Sumx(filter(Date, [Month year] = earlier([Month year])),[Work Day])
Work day of week = Sumx(filter(Date, [Weekyear] = earlier([Weekyear])),[Work Day])

 

measures

This Day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Work Date cont Rank]=max('Date'[Work Date cont Rank])))
Last work day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Work Date cont Rank]=max('Date'[Work Date cont Rank])-1))
diff =[This Day] - [Last work day]

Hi amitchandak

 

Thanks for your answer. However your formulas does not seem to show the desired result:

 

 

 

I have already created Workday column with "1" and "0" values. This data is correct and PrevWorkDay is nearly to work properly. I would like to fill up Blank PrevWorkDay cells with the very last work day.

    aramirez2 , I think, in the blog I shared I have updated nonworking dates with the last working dates 

     

    Work Date Cont = if([Work Day]=0,maxx(FILTER('Date',[Date]<EARLIER([Date]) && [Work Day]<> EARLIER([Work Day]) ),[Date]),[Date])
