I need to calculate sameperiod last year not with the calander year, but with the data that is available. Because i get the current data one month late, so when i calculate the dax formula (sameperiodlastyear) it calculates till this month last year, where the data is not right. here is my scenerio.
Latest Data:
April2020.
Current Data: June 10th. Next data is available only on 13th of June. so when i use this calculation, it takes
June2019 data to compare with April2020 so the data is not right as it calculates 2 extra month. how can i resolve this?

Hi @sure19
you can try something like this:
var _maxDate = CALCULATE(max('Table'[Date]),ALL('Table'))
return
date(YEAR(_maxDate),MONTH(_maxDate)-12,1)
where Table[Date] should be the date column in your data table.

You should probably use the filter-function, and you are also missing the criteria for the date. Try something like this:
MMBFQUAYYTD19 =
VAR _MXDATE =
CALCULATE ( MAX ( TP_ENG_METRICS[MONTHDATE] ), ALL ( 'TP_ENG_METRICS' ) )
RETURN
CALCULATE (
AVERAGE ( TP_ENG_KPI[KPI_VALUE] ),
FILTER (
'TP_ENG_KPI',
'TP_ENG_KPI'[KPI] IN { "MMBF FUN" }
&& TP_ENG_KPI[MonthDate]
>= DATE ( YEAR ( _MXDATE ), MONTH ( _MXDATE ) - 12, 1 )
)
)

Hi @sturlaws when i use this in my formula, i get some error. it works independently as a measure though. Here below it gives some error,
the error is "The True/False expression does not specify a column. Each True/False expressions used as a table filter expression must refer to exactly one column.
