Divide numbers from different dates

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I would like to have one measure which divides Vol 1 numbers by Vol 2 numbers in the same month periods.

Do you know how to create such a mesure? Tried already with calculate but couldn't solve that.

Thanks

@Anonymous , With help from a date table, joined with your date of table/s and date tbale columns used on axis/slicer etc

use trailing measure

3 Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-3,Year))

Time Intelligence, DATESMTD, DATESQTD, DATESYTD, Week On Week, Week Till Date, Custom Period on Period,

@Anonymous , one data is available in 2019, another one in 2022, remove year from visual , they will come in the same month

Thanks @amitchandak for the answer. It works but actualy my final goal is to have a chart like below where I have to show year 2022. Vol 1 / Vol 2 = infinity so I think it is necessary to solve that inside a measure.

On the screenshot there is only 2022 but I have also forcast data for 2023 which I have to show on the chart so can't remove a year.

@amitchandak thank you for your help! Just one additional question. Do you know if it is possible to make "-3" from the formula dynamic? Because for 2022 it shows data for 2019 but for 2023 it shows 2020 but I also need 2019.

Ok, I solved that.

Added additional column in calander table: DATEDIFF(Z_Calendar[Date],01/01/2019,YEAR)
And then replaced "-3" with SUM(Z_Calendar[Datediff covid])
