Hi experts,
I'm calculating the weight of the number of cases on each day of the month like this:
I have 2 questions.
1.- How can I calculate on a measure on the same table the [Weight day on month] for same day last year (SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR gives me 100% on every row)
2.- How to calculate the [Weight day on month] for same day +1 last year (on Jan 1st 2022, the value for Jan 2nd 2021)
Thanks a lot in advance
@setis Maybe:
Measure =
VAR __Date = MAX('Date'[Date])
VAR __LYDate = DATE(YEAR(__Date)-1,MONTH(__Date),DAY(__Date))
RETURN
CALCULATE([Weight day on month],'Date'[Date] = __LYDate)
Measure 2 =
VAR __Date = MAX('Date'[Date])
VAR __LYDate = DATE(YEAR(__Date)-1,MONTH(__Date),DAY(__Date)+1)
RETURN
CALCULATE([Weight day on month],'Date'[Date] = __LYDate)
@setis The scintillating joy of CALCULATE. What is your Cases measure? The formula? Could maybe try this:
Measure =
VAR __Date = MAX('Date'[Date])
VAR __LYDate = DATE(YEAR(__Date)-1,MONTH(__Date),DAY(__Date))
RETURN
CALCULATE([Weight day on month],ALL('Date'), 'Date'[Date] = __LYDate)
Unfortunately, same result.
My cases measure is:
Cases = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Cases) ,Cases[statuscodename] <> "Cancelled")
