Problem in calculating the difference from the previous month

I am calculating the difference of one month with last month, I tried this solution but it shows me the following:

cuadro_RRC.PNG
Using this formula always results in zero for me MOV_NETO_RRC
I would like to filter from January to April and only show me the values enclosed with blue.

The expected result is something like this:

 

cuadro esperadoRRC.PNG

Take into account that to calculate the month of January you must subtract the month of December.
My applied measure is as follows:

MOV_NETO_RRC = SUM(RRC[RESERVA_RIESGO_CURSO]) - CALCULATE(SUM(RRC[RESERVA_RIESGO_CURSO]);PARALLELPERIOD(DIM_TIEMPO[FECHA].[Date];-1;MONTH))

Hi @fjcampos ,

 

You may create measure like DAX below.

 

 

MOV_NETO_RRC =
SUM ( RRC[RESERVA_RIESGO_CURSO] )
    - CALCULATE (
        SUM ( RRC[RESERVA_RIESGO_CURSO] ),
        DATEADD ( DIM_TIEMPO[FECHA].[Date], -1, MONTH )
    )

 

 

Best Regards,

Thank you @v-xicai  for your answer, but the result is the same.

Hi @fjcampos ,

 

You may change the formula like DAX below.

 

MOV_NETO_RRC = IF(SUM(RRC[RESERVA_RIESGO_CURSO])=BLANK(), BLANK(), SUM(RRC[RESERVA_RIESGO_CURSO]) - CALCULATE(SUM(RRC[RESERVA_RIESGO_CURSO]);PARALLELPERIOD(DIM_TIEMPO[FECHA].[Date];-1;MONTH)))

 

If the total row is incorrect, you may create another measure except the original [MOV_NETO_RRC ] using HASONEVALUE function, and display the new measure in the Matrix visual. See the similar case .

 

If I misunderstood it, could you please share your sample data and desired output screenshots for further analysis? You can also upload sample pbix to OneDrive and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.

 

Best Regards,

Amy

Dear @v-xicai  I shared an example of my data. Can you help me solve the problem?

Thanks for your answer @v-xicai .

I attach an example file of how is my model Pbix

With your measurement I don't get a total result.
