YTD value as Calculated Column (not measure) in Data View

I'm trying to create 2 columns with the Year to Date values for each record in my table, but keeping all other descriptive data (Category, Product, etc) into account.

 

I attached a table with the example below. I have a data with 4 columns (Date, Category, Product, Value). So, for each Category and Product, I want to calculate the YTD for each of the rows of the table. The same logic will be then applied to a second column, but taking previous month YTD instead of current month.

Any help on that?

Hi, @Ale ;

Try to create a column by dax.

YTD = 
 CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),FILTER('Table',[Category]=EARLIER('Table'[Category])&&[Product]=EARLIER('Table'[Product])), DATESYTD('Table'[Date]))
YTD-M1 = 
CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[YTD]),FILTER('Table',[Category]=EARLIER('Table'[Category])&&[Product]=EARLIER('Table'[Product])&&EOMONTH([Date],0)=EOMONTH(EARLIER('Table'[Date]),-1)))+0

The final show;

Hi, @Ale ;

Try it.

YTD-M1 =
CALCULATE (
    MAX ( 'Table'[YTD] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category], 'Table'[Product] ),
        EOMONTH ( [Date], 0 ) = EOMONTH ( EARLIER ( 'Table'[Date] ), -1 )
    )
) + 0

The 30 descriptive Data (not only Category and Product) you said need to be input one by one. The descriptive data (descriptive data) can not be supported by all the columns at once.

Hi @v-yalanwu-msft ,

 

your solution works fine for this dummy file. However, in my real world case, I have a table with more than 30 descriptive data (not only Category and Product). In that case, I presume I would have to write down all the columns of my table in the DAX.

 

Is there any way we could get this logic working for all columns without having to type them one by one?

@Ale , Try like

 

YTD =
var _max = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , today())
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1*MONTH(_max))+1
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))

 

YTD +1 =
var _max = if(isfiltered('Date'),MAX( 'Date'[Date]) , today())
var _min = eomonth(_max,-1*MONTH(_max))+2
return
CALCULATE([net] ,DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],_min,_max))

ISFILTERED in a calculated column? I dont think so

@amitchandak ,this is returning the same values as in the column "Value", not summing the YTD.
