Hi,
I hope everyone's well.
I am trying to create a measure that uses previous week and current week data. The table looks like the following-
week_end | profit | loss | reference_for_1_may | net_product_margin |
29/05/2022 | 308 | 640 | 339779 | |
22/05/2022 | 576 | 1366 | 340111 | |
15/05/2022 | 658 | 1494 | 340901 | |
08/05/2022 | 600 | 1198 | 341737 | |
01/05/2022 | 612 | 1794 | 342335 | 342335 |
I am trying to create a measure net_product_margin which is calculated by using last week's net_product_margin value - current week 'loss' + current week 'gain'. Here's the code that I tried but it doesn't work perfectly. This does calculate the net_product_margin value correctly for 8th May 2022 but since I am using the column reference_for_1_may it doesn't calculate the later week net_product_margin value correctly.
net_product_margin = var _lastweek = CALCULATE('All Measures'[reference_for_1_may], FILTER(ALL('Dim_Date'),'Dim_Date'[End_of_Week] = SELECTEDVALUE(Dim_Date[End_of_Week]) -7 )) RETURN _lastweek - 'All Measures'[loss] + 'All Measures'[profit]
This is how the formula looks in excel.
I have the data from 1st May 2022 in my table so to have a reference I have added a reference column called reference_for_1_may that acts as reference data to calculate later week net_product_margin. I am scratching my head on this. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous
Here is the sample file with the solution https://www.dropbox.com/t/6o38jT13uTKnx2Fh
New Column
net_product_margin_calculated =
VAR ReferenceValue = 342335
VAR FirstDateEver = MIN ( 'P&L'[week_end] )
RETURN
SUMX (
FILTER (
'P&L',
'P&L'[week_end] <= EARLIER ( 'P&L'[week_end] )
&& 'P&L'[week_end] > FirstDateEver
),
'P&L'[profit] - 'P&L'[loss]
)
+ ReferenceValue
Hi @tamerj1
Thank you so much for the response. I am trying to replicate this but getting an error with EARLIER function.
@Anonymous
The solution is based on a calculated column not a measure
