Hi mellyVK,

You could try below measure

Last year same Qtr Sales =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( DATA1[Value] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( DATA1 ),
        DATA1[Product] = MIN ( DATA1[Product] )
            && DATA1[fiscalyearquarterno] = MIN ( DATA1[fiscalyearquarterno] )
            && DATA1[FinancialYearNo]
                = MIN ( DATA1[FinancialYearNo] ) - 1
    )
)

Measure =
IF (
    HASONEVALUE ( DATA1[fiscalquarter] ),
    [Last year same Qtr Sales],
    SUMX (
        SUMMARIZE (
            DATA1,
            DATA1[Product],
            DATA1[fiscalquarter],
            "test", [Last year same Qtr Sales]
        ),
        [test]
    )
)

Then use measure in table or visual

After intensive struggle found this as the best and easiest way. All others have provided the fiscal week or quarter comparisions but when try to filter with any of the categories or dimensions the sales values will not change and remain the same as whole. THis worked amazingly

I used the first one and it works perfectly! Thanks so much.

By the way, what was the second measure for?

Hi mellyVK, 

When you use first one in table, it won't calculate grand total automatically, so you could use second measure in table which will show grand total in table.

Thanks, but how do i calculate the quarter over quarter?

I already had the fiscal year and quarter column.

[amitchandak]

Please create a separate time table. Please find my calc for last year same Qtr

Last year same Qtr Sales = 
var _year = (max('OrderTime'[Order Year])-1)&""
var _qtr = max('OrderTime'[Order Qtr Name])
var _min_date = Minx(FILTER(all(OrderTime),OrderTime[Order Year]=_year && OrderTime[Order Qtr Name]=_qtr),
OrderTime[Order Date])
var _max_date = MAXx(FILTER(all(OrderTime),OrderTime[Order Year]=_year && OrderTime[Order Qtr Name]=_qtr),
OrderTime[Order Date])
return CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales]),OrderTime[Order Date]>= _min_date && OrderTime[Order Date]<= _max_date )
