Week Over Week Change %

Hello All,

 

Could anyone assist me in a week over week change measure please? 

 

the below doesnt seem to be working for me. 

 

Red Jobs WoW% =
IF(
    ISFILTERED('Open Job Report Tracker'[Date]),
    ERROR("Time intelligence quick measures can only be grouped or filtered by the Power BI-provided date hierarchy or primary date column."),
    VAR __PREV_WEEK =
        CALCULATE(
            SUM('Open Job Report Tracker'[Red Jobs]),
            DATEADD('Open Job Report Tracker'[Date].[Date], -7, DAY)
        )
    RETURN
        DIVIDE(
            SUM('Open Job Report Tracker'[Red Jobs]) - __PREV_WEEK,
            __PREV_WEEK
        )
)

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) My test data is the same as yours.

(2) We can create a measure. 

Red Jobs WoW% = 
VAR __PREV_WEEK =CALCULATE(SUM('Open Job Report Tracker'[red jobs]),FILTER(ALL('Open Job Report Tracker'),'Open Job Report Tracker'[Date]=MAX('Open Job Report Tracker'[Date])-7))
var _b= DIVIDE(SUM('Open Job Report Tracker'[red jobs])-__PREV_WEEK,__PREV_WEEK,0)
return IF(
    ISFILTERED('Open Job Report Tracker'[Date]),
    ERROR("Time intelligence quick measures can only be grouped or filtered by the Power BI-provided date hierarchy or primary date column."),_b)

(3) Then the result is as follows.
