Dears,
I have a customer table and these customers are opening like stores, I want to calculate the new stores that opened for each then calculates the average growth.
I have an open date and store id for each.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous
Would you like result below:
count open = DISTINCTCOUNT('Table 2'[store id])
growth % =
VAR m1 =
DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table 2'[store id] ) + 0
VAR m2 =
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table 2'[store id] ) + 0,
DATEADD ( 'Date'[Date], -1, MONTH )
)
VAR s = m1 - m2
RETURN
IF ( m2 = 0, s / 1, s / m2 )
Date table
Date =
ADDCOLUMNS (
CALENDARAUTO (),
"year", YEAR ( [Date] ),
"month", FORMAT ( [Date], "Mmm" ),
"year-month", FORMAT ( [Date], "yyyy-mm" )
)
Best Regards

@Anonymous , growth is related to period. You can use time intelligence. You can join start date with a date table. and then have measure store open this month , last month an calculate gowth
example
MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))
last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))
diff = [MTD Sales]-[last MTD Sales]
diff % = divide([MTD Sales]-[last MTD Sales],[last MTD Sales])
QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(('Date'[Date])))
Last QTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESQTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,QUARTER)))
YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date],"12/31"))
Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year),"12/31"))
To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

Appreciate your Kudos.
Hi @Anonymous ,
It will be nice to have some sample data here so that proper calculations can be suggested.
Thanks,
