Target Setting vs last year

Good Morning 

 

I am looking for help in setting target number based on period filter with value of last year, below is my scenerio 

 

I select date from 1st sep to 30th sep 

i got 2 values day by day - current year sales and last year sales

lets say last year total sep is 10,000 & 

current year so for MTD(19 days) is 6,000

now my target is 4,000 for next 11 days

i want daynamic formula how this could be fixed in per day.

 

also i would like to clear based on my period selected the value should be changing.

 

thanks in advance.

  • Hi,

     

    I think a bracket is missing.  Try this

     

    =-[Sales Diff]/((EOMONTH(TODAY(),0)-TODAY())+1)

    Not sure about data model. Assuming a usual data model, somthing like this below will help you.

     

    CALCULATE( SUM(Sales_Fact[Sales]),SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date])) - SUM(Sales_Fact[Sales])

     

    Share some sample data, details about your model for more specific solution.

     

    Thanks

        You already have current and last year sales. so, simple SUM( sales[CYSales]) - SUM( Sales[LYSales]) should give you the expected result.

         

        Thanks
