Hi community,
I have the following requirements:
Use prior year values for same month in current year to estimate volume expected.
Example if I have 12 units in Novemner of 2022, I'd like to show the value (12) under November 2023 as PY
The data:
I have two years of data with monthly values.
I have multiple projects and need to show the above for each project and its cohort of items
My challenge is scaffolding the transactional data that ends (for now) at august. I need to add future months and then bring in th e values as mentioned above.
I hope this is clear, but please ask questions. Appreciate the help!

PY Value =
CALCULATE(
[Total value],
SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date])
)
Forecast Value =
IF(
ISBLANK([Total value]),
[PY Value],
[Total value]
)
