Hello,
I have a large table with quarterly amounts like this:
Desc 1 | Desc 2 | Desc 3 | Desc 4 | Desc 5 | Desc 6 | Year | Quarter | Date | Actual |
AAA | BBB | CCC | DDD | EEE | FFF | 2012 | Q1 | 3/31/2012 | xxx |
AAA | BBB | CCC | DDD | EEE | FFF | 2012 | Q2 | 6/30/2012 | xx |
I calculated the date column in Power Query, to show the last date for each quarter. This date has a relationship with a calendar table.
I tried to create a measure in DAX to calculate the last year (2011) amount for each quarter. I have complete data for each of the quarters in 2011 and with the same values from Desc 1 to Desc 6 (description). However, because I don't have daily data, the measure returns empty value.
How to create a measure in DAX to show last year - last quarter for each line?
Thanks
Hi @amitchandak
Thank you for your reply. I previously tried to use the time intelligence measures you mentioned but they are returning blank. I think the reason is that the data is available only for the end of each quarter, e.g. (3/31/2012), (6/30/20212), so it is not time continuous.
@Danny2020 , Join the date of your table with the date of a date table. It should be marked as a date table. You need to use the field from the date table in measure, visual and slicer.
You can try measure like
Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))
Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]))
