YTD Values for Last year Measure

Dear Community 

 

I have a measure to calculate YTD values, which is derived as follows:

 

Sales_YTD_Advanced =

CALCULATE(

    SUM('FactTable'[Value]),

    DATESYTD('Date'[Date]),

    ALLSELECTED('Date'[Month])

)

 

I have another measure to calculate Last year values for selected months as follows:

 

LY = CALCULATE([Amount],DATEADD('Date'[Date],-1,YEAR),REMOVEFILTERS('Date'[Date]))

 

All i need is to have a YTD measure for Last year (LY) measure.

Hi,

Not sure of what you want but try these simpler measures

Sales_YTD_Advanced = CALCULATE(SUM('FactTable'[Value]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date]))
LY = CALCULATE([Amount],sameperiodlastyear('Date'[Date]))

If these do not work, then share the download link of the PBI file.  Show the expected result there clearly.
