Trying to compare the difference between 2 dates recursively?
Hi all
I have a list of dates (from a column called Report Dates) and a list of values (result of COUNTA from a column called "Backlog") in a Matrix visual.
I want to add a new row/Value which shows the difference between the current Report Date and the previous Report Date.
I.e :
Nov 12th would have +18 next to it as it's an increase of 12 from Nov 5th.
How would i go about doing this?
Hi Anonymous
try this:
Measure =
Var _M = Max(table[Report Dates])
Var _M1 = calculate(Max(table[Report Dates]),filter(all(table),table[Report Dates]<_M))
return
COUNTA(table[Backlog]) - calculate(COUNTA(table[Backlog]),filter(all(table),table[Report Dates]=_M1))If this post helps, please consider accepting it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.

Hi Anonymous
You can use a measure to add a new column to the matrix to show the variance, Try this measure:
Measure =
Var _M = Max(table[Report Dates])
Var _M1 = calculate(Max(table[Report Dates]),filter(all(table),table[Report Dates])<_M))
return
COUNTA(table[Backlog]) - calculate(COUNTA(table[Backlog]),filter(all(table),table[Report Dates])=_M1))If this post helps, please consider accepting it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.

Have I missed something?
