Quarter Wise Calculations in a Table format
- 1 year ago
Add a date table, joined to the reporting date column, with a quarter column
https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/creating-a-simple-date-table-in-dax/
Add classification to rows and quarter to columns for a matrix visual. Then you would need measures for the values i.e.
Active = calculate( countrows( facts), fact[status] = "Active" )
Inactive = calculate( countrows( facts), fact[status] = "Inactive" )
Sales = sum( fact[sales] )
Not sure how you want to calculate the card percentages or the green Vs grey sales

OK this is now clear
Total Sales/Total Sales = Total Sales of Q1 / Total Sales of Q2
what about Active, what is the meaning of that? So I can check the right DAX cose of that
Deku suggested
Active = calculate( countrows( facts), fact[status] = "Active" )
Inactive = calculate( countrows( facts), fact[status] = "Inactive" )
Sales = sum( fact[sales] )
Rest will be
Total Sales Q1 = CALCULATE ( [Sales], Calendar[Quarter]="Q1" )
Total Sales Q2 = CALCULATE ( [Sales], Calendar[Quarter]="Q2" )
Ratio = DIVIDE ( [Total Sales Q1], [Total Sales Q2] )
Best

but I want to be sure that Active is a count of rows or might be a number of distinc values of some column, can you clarify this?
Thanks

Add a extra condition in the calculate(). If the calendar table extends past the current year could use year( today() ) or some other logic if you want filtering to affect it
Like
Total Sales Q1 =
Var maxYear = calculate(max( calendar[year] ), removefilters( calender) )
Return
CALCULATE ( [Sales], Calendar[Quarter]="Q1"
Calendar[year] = maxYear)
It is certainly possible using a matrix with classification in rows and quarters in columns and then the DAX measures in Values
You should first create a calendar table with CALENDARAUTO () and connect it to the Sales table
For the card, I am confused by the meaning on the cells, for example one labe says Total Sales / Total Sales with value 56%?!
If you want more help
Please include, in a usable format, not an image, a small set of rows for each of the tables involved in your request and show the data model in a picture, so that we can import the tables in Power BI and reproduce the data model. The subset of rows you provide, even is just a subset of the original tables, must cover your issue or question completely. Do not include sensitive information and do not include anything that is unrelated to the issue or question. Please show the expected outcome based on the sample data you provided and make sure, in case you show a Power BI visual, to clarify the columns used in the grouping sections of the visual.
