a row included in both values of a slicer

Hello, 

 

for a report i need to set a slicer that filters either "Last month" or "last fiscal year" ; using just a date slider won't do it for the use of this report. 

 

the problem is that the "last month" should is included in the "last fiscal year" too; so an if condition doesnt work 

 

this is an example of the data i have

thank you in advance for your answers

@Nouha,

Change the last fiscal year measure to the following:

last fiscal year= CALCULATE(SUM(Table[CA SME]),FILTER(Table,Table[Fiscal year]=YEAR(TODAY())))


Then follow the guide in the blog below to use slicer to show the two different measures.

@Nouha,

What is your expected result based on the above sample table? Which "last month" and "last fiscal year" do you refer to? 

If you want to calculate CA SME value for this month(201802) and this year(2017) in your table, you can create measures.

last fiscal year= CALCULATE(SUM(Table[CA SME]),FILTER(Table,Table[Fiscal year]=YEAR(TODAY())-1))
last Month= CALCULATE(SUM(Table[CA SME]),FILTER(Table,Table[Month]=Table[YearMonth]))


The YearMonth column can be calculated using DAX:YearMonth = YEAR(TODAY())&"0"&(MONTH(TODAY())-1).

Hello ;

 

my hoped for result  is :

 

when I select "Last month" on a slicer (from a table where i enter the two rows 'last month' and "last fiscal year" ) it only displays the row 201802

 

and when i select "last fiscal year" it only displays rows that have fiscal year = 2018 

 

this means that the month 201802 should appear in both selections
