Hi
I have a matrix with 2 simple measures across two years:
Total Sum, Total Count
How can I add a column with Year Over Year Difference?
Below is an Excel example of my desired outcome. I need help creating the Yellow column.
(Years are taken from the dimDate, measures from the factSales)
Thank you

Hi @tamiribas ,
I'm sorry I can only do this for the time being, I think maybe this result won't be what you expected. I will continue to try to achieve your desired results exactly.
I'll go through the method I'm using:
You can create a new table using the following DAX:
SummaryTable =
VAR SalesAmount2021 = CALCULATE(SUM(factSales[Amount]), 'dimDate'[Year] = 2021)
VAR SalesAmount2022 = CALCULATE(SUM(factSales[Amount]), 'dimDate'[Year] = 2022)
VAR TotalAmount2021 = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('factSales'), 'dimDate'[Year] = 2021)
VAR TotalAmount2022 = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('factSales'), 'dimDate'[Year] = 2022)
VAR SalesAmountDiff = SalesAmount2022 - SalesAmount2021
VAR TotalAmountDiff = TotalAmount2022 - TotalAmount2021
RETURN
UNION(
ROW("Year", "2021", "SalesAmount", SalesAmount2021, "TotalAmount", TotalAmount2021),
ROW("Year", "2022", "SalesAmount", SalesAmount2022, "TotalAmount", TotalAmount2022),
ROW("Year", "YoY", "SalesAmount", SalesAmountDiff, "TotalAmount", TotalAmountDiff)
)
Then create the matrix with the newly created table:

Hi,
Using this measure will indeed give the previous year's amount. However, my challenge is the layout!
If I use the default matrix layout I get the years in the rows and the measure in the columns.
If I activate the "switch values to rows" option I get the measures in the rows and the years in the columns as in the above screenshot.
My need is to show the last measure in the column (same dimensions as the years)

If you have time intelligence turned on, and a date table related to you sales, you can use the DAX function SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR.
= CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[SalesAmount]), SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(DateTime[DateKey]))
