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.

Dog.
Great stuff. Thanks again.
