Wrong total value for YTD PY measure

[monika992]

Hi!

I have a problem with total value for YTD PY calculation. I need to analyse data based on specific date. So i need to compare values sold in dates range 01.01.2024-11.04.2024 and same period in previous year - 01.01.2023 - 11.04.2023. I`ve used following measures (using also date table which ends on 11.04.2024). 

Current Year YTD:

Ilosci CY YTD =

 TOTALYTD([Value], 'Tabela kalendarzowa'[Date])

YTD PY:

ytd. Ilości YTD PY = calculate(

                        [Ilosci CY YTD],

                        SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Tabela kalendarzowa'[Date])

                    )

Unfortunately, total value for YTD PY shows value for 30.04.2023 not 11.04.2023. How can I solve it?

Hi ,

Thanks for the solution @lukiz84 provided, and i want to offer some more information for user to refer to.

hello @monika992 , you can try the following measure.

ytd. Ilości YTD PY =
CALCULATE (
    [Ilosci CY YTD],
    SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR ( 'Tabela kalendarzowa'[Date] ),
    'Tabela kalendarzowa'[Date] <= DATE ( 2024, 4, 11 )
)

Best Regards!
