Hello Experts,
I am unable to get the values for Previous month even after using the function. I even tried the function over ALL(dataset), still the desired result is not obtained.
Kindly help.
Here is the pbix file.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Last Months Sales =
CALCULATE (
[Total Sales],
PREVIOUSMONTH ( SalesByDate[Date] ),
ALLEXCEPT ( SalesByDate, SalesByDate[Date] )
)
Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
Hi @Anonymous ,
Below two measure work fine , please try:
Last Months Sales 1 = CALCULATE([Total Sales],PREVIOUSMONTH('SalesByDate'[Date].[Date]))
Last Months Sales 2 = CALCULATE([Total Sales],PARALLELPERIOD('SalesByDate'[Date].[Date],-1,MONTH ))
Best Regards,
