Subtraction and Percentage difference

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone.

 I have "net shipmant" column from 2019 and "net shipmnat" from 2018.

"variance order" is my 2019 and 2018 filter.

now I want to create 2 columns wich will be calculate

1. Net variance $   (2019-2018)

2. Net variance %

For the first case the results are :

 $152.50 - $499.00 =  ($346.50)

 $0 - $118.48 = ($118.48)

 $1,655.88 - $5,466.85 = ($3,810.97) 

      ......

my sql code: =Sum(iif(Fields!VarianceOrder.Value=1,val(Fields!NetShipments.value),0))
-
Sum(iif(Fields!VarianceOrder.Value=2,val(Fields!NetShipments.value),0)) 

For the second case the results are:

-69.44%

-100.00%

-69.71%

.....

my sql code: =(Sum(iif(Fields!VarianceOrder.Value=1,val(Fields!NetShipments.value),0))
-
Sum(iif(Fields!VarianceOrder.Value=2,val(Fields!NetShipments.value),0)))
/
Sum(iif(Fields!VarianceOrder.Value=2,val(Fields!NetShipments.value),0))

Please help me solve this problem 🙂

Hi @Anonymous 

You may create a measure like below.Attached sample file for your reference.

Measure =
VAR _2019 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[NetShipments] ),
        FILTER ( Table1, Table1[Year] = 2019 )
    )
VAR _2018 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[NetShipments] ),
        FILTER ( Table1, Table1[Year] = 2018 )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        ISFILTERED ( Table1[Year] ),
        SUM ( Table1[NetShipments] ),
        IF (
            SELECTEDVALUE ( Table2[Order] ) = 1,
            _2019 - _2018,
            IF (
                SELECTEDVALUE ( Table2[Order] ) = 2,
                DIVIDE ( _2019 - _2018, _2018 ),
                SUM ( Table1[NetShipments] )
            )
        )
    )

Hi @Anonymous 

You may create two measures to get the value.

Percentage =
VAR _2019 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[NetShipments] ),
        FILTER ( Table1, Table1[Year] = 2019 )
    )
VAR _2018 =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[NetShipments] ),
        FILTER ( Table1, Table1[Year] = 2018 )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        ISFILTERED ( Table1[Year] ),
        SUM ( Table1[NetShipments] ),
        FORMAT ( DIVIDE ( _2019 - _2018, _2018 ), "Percent" )
    )
