Hello All!
I am looking for a simple calculation in power bi that I can't seem to figure out. I am looking to get the difference from previous date. I'm not quite sure how to get this to work. I have included a picture of what I would like the end result to be in power bi. I would like to calculate the difference from the previous date and dynamically show every 2 days (i.e data for the 4/1/20, 4/3/20, 4/5/20 and so on). I did create a date table and created a relationship to my date column in my data table, but still haven't gotten anything to work.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you in advance!
@Anonymous , refer if these measures can help
example
Last Day Non Continous = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(all('Date'),'Date'[Date] =MAXX(FILTER(all('Date'),'Date'[Date]<max('Date'[Date])),Table['Date'])))
Day behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Day))
Diff COlumn = datediff(maxx(filter(Table,Table[Date]<earlier(Table[Date]) && Table[Numberf]= earlier(Table[Numberf]) ),Table[Date]) ,Table[Date],Day)
This Day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]=max('Date'[Date])))
Last Day = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]=max('Date'[Date])-1))
To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

HI @Anonymous ,
If I understand your question correctly, You need different with the value from a day -2.
Here I have replicated the scenario. Let me know if it works for you or not.
