    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Please modify the measure syntax as shown below:

    event_distinctcount_PY = 
VAR _currentYear =
    VALUE ( MID ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[year_month] ), 2, 2 ) )
VAR _currentMonth =
    VALUE ( MID ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[year_month] ), 5, 2 ) )
var _Slicer_Country = VALUES('Table'[country])
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[event] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Table' ),
            VALUE ( MID ( 'Table'[year_month], 2, 2 ) ) = _currentYear - 1
                && VALUE ( MID ( 'Table'[year_month], 5, 2 ) ) = _currentMonth
                &&'Table'[country] IN _Slicer_Country
        )
    )

Hi Anonymous ,

 

When I modified from ALLSELECTED to ALL then the Country slicer stops applying to the PY measure. Is there a way we can modify it so that this measure will be filtered by all other slicers but not the year_month slicer?

 

Thank you!
