Wrong growth percentage

Hello everyone, good afternoon!


I'm preparing a report, where the percentage is coming out very high and I believe it's wrong when I do a data filter, from a large data like the one from 6 years ago.

In print, the largest number 400,611 is the number since we began operations. And the percentage is the percentage considering how many X days or years ago. Where he gives me a comparison of growth in this period.

The largest number is the number of rows that exist in a table in my database. I'm using DISTINCTCOUNT

@agenciamach , Try this

same period based on date range Last Period = 
var _max =maxx(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[date])
var _min =Minx(ALLSELECTED('Date'),'Date'[date])
var datediff1 = datediff(_min,_max,day)+1
var _maxX = _max-datediff1
var _minX = _min -datediff1
return
CALCULATE(sum(Sales[Net Sales]),filter(all('Date'),'Date'[date]<=_maxX && 'Date'[date]>=_minX))
//
//datediff1  & unichar(10) &"    Min " & _min & unichar(10) &"    Max " & _max  & unichar(10) &"    LastMin " & _minX  & unichar(10) &"    LastMax " & _maxX

 

same period based on date range year behind  
Last Period =
var _max =maxx(allseleceted(date),date[date])
var _min =Minx(allseleceted(date),date[date])
var datediff1 = datediff(_min,_max,day)
var _maxX = eomonth(_max,-12)+1
var _minX = eomonth(_min,-12)+1
return
CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(all(date,date[date]<=_maxX &&date[date]>=_minX)))
