TOTALYTD not working
- 9 years ago
just in case I'm not online I'll post anyways
both filters are set against the Year and MonthNameEN columns from DimDate table
SumOfSales = sum(FactEstimates[SaleNetNet])
Current Period Sales = CALCULATE([SumOfSales])
Previous Year Period Sales = CALCULATE([SumOfSales], SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(DimDate[BK_Calendar]))
Current YTD Sales = CALCULATE([SumOfSales], DATESYTD(DimDate[BK_Calendar]))
Previous Year YTD Sales = CALCULATE([Current YTD Sales], SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(DimDate[BK_Calendar]))
Current Full Year Sales = CALCULATE([SumOfSales], ALL(DimDate), DATESBETWEEN(DimDate[BK_Calendar], STARTOFYEAR(DimDate[BK_Calendar]), ENDOFYEAR(DimDate[BK_Calendar])))
Previous Full Year Sales = CALCULATE([Current Full Year Sales], SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(DimDate[BK_Calendar]))

Hi David,
the previous full year is returning a total of all salesnet for 2014 as there are no dates in the date table.
there are two options I suppose, you could populate those 2014 dates in the DimDate table which would return a blank for the joined records.
or
amend the measure to manually work out the start and end dates of the previous year and only return data if these are populated.
Previous Full Year Sales =
var startdate = DATEADD(STARTOFYEAR(DimDate[BK_Calendar]), -1, YEAR)
var enddate = DATEADD(ENDOFYEAR(DimDate[BK_Calendar]), -1, YEAR)RETURN
IF(ISBLANK(startdate) || ISBLANK(enddate),blank(), CALCULATE([SumOfSales], ALL(DimDate), DATESBETWEEN(DimDate[BK_Calendar], startdate, enddate)))Dog.
Many thanks again
It's not the blank values that are an issue, it's the 479.11M. It should also show a blank value. No idea what this value is.
Thanks
Ah ok.
do you know if that one is working at all? so if you select "2016" does the previous year value change to 179.56?
Thanks

Works fine , just when there is no data for previous year it show some strange value.

and just to play devils advocate.
can you send a shot of the 2014 year selected as well please?

I don't have data for 2014 in my result set. In my query I select only 2015,2016,2017 & 2018.

No that's fine I just wanted to see what the Current Full Year card came out like.
