Show Current & Previous Year Values in a bar chart based on Year and Month Selection in the slicer

Hi All,

My requirement is, I need to show selected year and previous year values in a bar chart based on Year & Month selection in a slicer. For that, I have already created a measure which is using dates from two date tables one (calendar table) which is connect to fact table and other date table (previous dates table) is connected to calendar table by making inactive relationship. Please refer the formula for measure attached below.

 

 

Selected Sales Price = 
VAR _referenceDate = MAX(dim_calendar[date])
VAR _previousDates = DATESINPERIOD('Previous Dates'[Date],_referenceDate,-2,YEAR)
VAR _result = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(sales_table[list_price]),
    REMOVEFILTERS(dim_calendar),
    KEEPFILTERS(_previousDates),
    USERELATIONSHIP(dim_calendar[date],'Previous Dates'[Date]))
RETURN _result

 

 

This measure is providing correct results whenever I select year selection but it is not providing correct result for month slicer selection.

Your help would be highly appreciated.
