Hi All,
I am trying to build a measure o a column that is telling me the difference between today and yesterday. The issue with the data is that is cumulative. That means if I have a column like costs. I have that "day 3 cost" = day 1 cost + day 2 cost + day 3 cost, and so on. What I need is to have the difference between dates so I can have the "raw" cost for that day. I want to do it in power query but I tried some different way and didn't work. So I tried with DAX (not optimal for my database).
I tried different formulas with DAX:
With Sum and DATEADD Costs previous day = CALCULATE(Sum(Products[Cost]); DATEADD(Products[Date];-1; DAY)) Cost(Daily) = CALCULATE(SUM(Products[Cost]);LASTDATE(Products[Date])) - [Costs previous day] With Max and YTD Costs previous day = CALCULATE(MAX(Products[Cost]); DATEADD(DatesYTD(Products[Date]);-1; DAY)) Cost(YTD) = CALCULATE(Max(Products[Cost]);DatesyTD(Products[Date])) - [MAX Costs previous day]
My Data:
If someone has an idea how to do it in Power Query or to improve it in DAX.
Thanks,
J.

Hi @Jmenas,
According to your description above, I would suggest you use the formula below to create a new calculate column in your table in this scenario.
Cost(Daily) = VAR costPreviousDay = CALCULATE ( SUM ( Products[Cost] ), FILTER ( ALL ( Products ), Products[Date] = EARLIER ( Products[Date] ) - 1 && Products[Container Type] = EARLIER ( Products[Container Type] ) ) ) RETURN Products[Cost] - costPreviousDay

Hi. I have the same issue but my data table is a bit different.
Same concept. I want to subtract today's value @ 8AM with yesterday's value @ 8AM. Preferably in a measure.
Managed to get a value for the TotToday but a 'blank' for TotPreviousDay.
Please help.
