Hi,
I have a matrix whereby I am looking at my values split by year and then day/month. Below is how the matrix is made up.
What I'd like to add in is the % difference between current year vs last year.
I have a filter where App_date relative in the last 12 months.
Rows
App_date
Month
Day
App_instruction
Columns
App_date
Year
Values
Count(app_ur)
Year. 2023. 2024. %diff
Month
Jan. 11. 6. 45%
02. 5. 2. 60%
03. 3. 2. 33%
04. 3. 3. 0%
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @M_SBS_6
Maybe you can try this:
I create a set of sample data:
Then create a measure:
DIFF =
VAR _currentMonth = MONTH(MAX('Table'[date]))
VAR _currentYear = YEAR(MAX('Table'[date]))
VAR _PreviousYear = CALCULATE(
YEAR(MAX('Table'[date])),
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED('Table'),
YEAR('Table'[date]) < _currentYear
)
)
VAR _perviousValue = CALCULATE(
SUM('Table'[value]),
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED('Table'),
YEAR('Table'[date]) = _PreviousYear && MONTH('Table'[date]) = _currentMonth
)
)
RETURN
IF(
_perviousValue <> BLANK(),
(_perviousValue - SUMX(
'Table',
'Table'[value]
)) / _perviousValue
)
The result is as follow:
