Time Comparison - Half 2 vs. Half 1 based on time elapsed in H2 vs. same time period in prior half

Hi,

 

How can I compare half 2 sales results (Jul-Dec) as of Aug 26th vs half 1 results (Jan-Jun) same time period?

ie. H2 as of Aug 26th = 40 working days vs. H1 first 40 days from Jan01?

 

Currently I have a sales sum for H2 using datesbetween and a sum of sales for H1 using dates between and then I calculate a % to sales target for the full half. I am trying to provide a secondary calculation which compares H2 (first 40 days) vs. sametime period H1 (first 40 days).

 

Thanks so much in advance,

@amitchandak thanks so much, I've uploaded a date table into powerbi which ends at the end of 12/31/2022... is there a way for me to factor into the "Last Half Year Till Date" the fact that dates 08/19/2022 to 12/31/2022 is not being added?
