Comparing entire row in table

Hi,

 

So far i succeeded to compare yesterday with today. But i am doing this by creating two measures, one to get the value from yesterday and one to calculate the difference between yesterday and today. In my table I have 14 columns. Is there a way to compare the whole row at once?

Relationships

Everything comes from a single table (and measures form that table). Date has a many to one relationship with the table.

date - 1: many - table1

 

Measures1 - get the value from yesterday

com_test = VAR PriorDay = SELECTEDVALUE(table1[date])-1

RETURN
CALCULATE(
( 'table1'[gb_total_supply]),
ALL ( table1[date]),
table1[date] = PriorDay
)

 

Measures2 - calculate the difference in %
com_test % difference from gb_total_supply =
VAR __BASELINE_VALUE = [measure1]
VAR __VALUE_TO_COMPARE = [measure2]
RETURN
IF(
NOT ISBLANK(__VALUE_TO_COMPARE),
DIVIDE(__VALUE_TO_COMPARE - __BASELINE_VALUE, __BASELINE_VALUE)
)

 

Idealistic I would like to choose a value from the first table and then that value gets compared to a static day (today) in the second table, is this even possible in power bi?

I think you need to have that many measures. The only thing is if you need to change % only. You can create prior measure as var in that formula.

Thanks for your quick reply. Is there a way to make one measure from the two measures i'm currently working with?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

What is the structure of your data? How is the model setup? Depending on the configurations the answer will be different.
