Not getting categories present in previous month but not in present month

[Piu]

I was trying to calculate the productivity of previous month but I m not getting all the categories which are present in previous month but not in current month.

the 2 measures which I have used to calculate it is mentioned below

Total_Productivity =

IF (

    [New_Dwg] <> 0,

    DIVIDE([Total MH], [New_Dwg])

)

_prev_Productivity = If ([New_Dwg] <> 0,

 Calculate([Total_Productivity],PREVIOUSMONTH('Date'[Date])))
Please help me how to solve this problem

Hi @Piu ,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community.

To calculate the categories that are present in the previous month but not in the current month, you can use DAX to compare the data from both months. You can use the EXCEPT function to identify categories that exist in the previous month but are missing in the current month. Ensure that your PREVIOUSMONTH function is correctly applied to your measures and that the conditions in your IF statements are set appropriately for accurate calculation.
