Try this:

Measure=
Var _T = Today()
Var _LYS = date(year(_T)-1,01,01)
Var _LYF = date(year(_T)-1,month(_T),day(_T))
Return
calculate(sum(sales),filter(table,date[date]>=_LYS &&date[date]<=_LYF ))

Your formula seems okay, make sure in your date slicer you have selected 1st jan21 to 3rd oct 2021

 

Measure = CALCULATE ( SUM ( sales[column] ), SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR ( date[date] ) )
