Using SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR with MIN date

Hi,

 

I need to count the number of accumulated contracts (formula below) per month. Then I need the same calculation to compare with the last year.

 

At this point is when I can not continue. I don't know where or how use SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR.

 

The Fact table is "ContratosServicio" and the Calender table "Calendario".

 

15_TotalBOPLastPeriod =
 CALCULATE(COUNT(ContratosServicio[Id]),
filter(
    ALLEXCEPT(ContratosServicio,ContratosServicio[IdCentroContratacion],ServiciosContratables[IdTipoServicio] ),
      ContratosServicio[FechaAlta] < min(calendario[date]) && ContratosServicio[FechaBaja] = BLANK()))
 
Thanks in advance.

Hi @joaquinel ,

I think you have to use this measure

CALCULATE(

                   [15_TotalBOPLastPeriod],

                  SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('calendario'[date])

       )
