Anonymous , Sameperiod last year can help

Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))
Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]))

Hi, I tried SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR as well as DATEADD, but these formulas don't work since my FY-FQ column (i.e., 2022-Q1) is not formatted as a date. 

 

My dataset only has fiscal years and fiscal quarters, not exact dates.
