I suppose that you have a date column in your dataset.

To calculate the total for the previous quarter:

Previous Quarter Total = 
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[ColA] ),
    PREVIOUSQUARTER ( 'Table'[DateColumn] )
)

Then :

QoQ % Change = 
DIVIDE(
    [Current Quarter Total] - [Previous Quarter Total],
    [Previous Quarter Total]
)

Hi Amira,

unfortunately it is not good.

current Q total measure is: 

= CALCULATE([LOIs],(PREVIOUSQUARTER(DATESQTD('EU-A KPIs  PBi-2024'[Commission Month]))))
this measure result is 2,117, which incl 2024 Jan+2023 Dec+2023 Nov data
my problem is that, how can i create previous quater data which incl the previous 3 month data, currently Aug-Oct 2023 and this data should be 1,930. 

Can you please share your initial table ?
and then the expected output ?
