Hello Mohan 🙂

This is kind of a 1 fits all calculation for growth, just change the last parameter Quarter for Month , Year, Day , Week, what ever you need 🙂
and obviously , replace MEASURE with the calculation you need, 

 

Measure QoQ% = 
	VAR __PREV_YEAR = CALCULATE([Measure], DATEADD('Calendar'[Date].[Date], -1, QUARTER))
	RETURN
		DIVIDE([Measure] - __PREV_YEAR, __PREV_YEAR)

hope this helps
give a thumbs up if it does :)))

Hi Mohan,


I ain't no expert on PBI, but let me try to help you out 🙂

 

If the dataset is represented the way you presented, my approch to this would start in preparation, instead of calculation, i will take this a long run, so you can use Date-Time Functions instead of hard code calculation.

 

Go to the PowerQuery editor, you can use the UI to do this, 
Add a new Table (Calendar)

 

Calendar = CALENDAR(Datevalue("2018-01-01"),DATEVALUE("2019-12-31"))

add a columns

WeekKey = CONCATENATE(YEAR(date)CONCATENATE("W",WEEKNUM(date))



 

Now get our super fresh and new Calendar table and relation it with your fact table in the week column, try one of powerbi ready-made measures for YoY or MoM , and see if that solves your problem 
(and just copy paste their code for QoQ,WoW, or whatever works)

This is a Noobie solutions, i bet the pros will have some 1 line of code , 30s solution....but thats what i got 🙂

 

let me know if this helps in any way 🙂
