How to show the variance between two year rows in a matrix

Hi Power BI Guru's

 

Need help, please.

Below "Total" is the total amount calculating sum of 2018 & 2019.  I need the "Total" Row to show the difference by way of subtracting 2019 and 2018...

I already have a column for Variance, but cannot seem to get it to look exactly as below.

Any Takers?

It will automatically appear in the total as the difference between highest selected year's value and lowest selected year's value

@Anno2019 -

Try something like this for your Measure:

 

My Diff Measure =
CALCULATE ( [some value], FILTER ( 'Date', Year = 2019 ) )
    - CALCULATE ( [some value], FILTER ( 'Date', Year = 2018 ) )

Try this MEASURE.

 

Measure =
VAR MaxYear =
    MAXX ( ALLSELECTED ( Table1[Economic Year SAP] ), [Economic Year SAP] )
VAR MinYear =
    MINX ( ALLSELECTED ( Table1[Economic Year SAP] ), [Economic Year SAP] )
RETURN
    IF (
        HASONEFILTER ( Table1[Economic Year SAP] ),
        SUM ( Table1[Value] ),
        CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table1[Value] ), Table1[Economic Year SAP] = MaxYear )
            - CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table1[Value] ), Table1[Economic Year SAP] = MinYear )
    )

Hi @Zubair_Muhammad / @Anonymous ,

 

This is a great idea to display the variance in the same row of the measure column and I need your assistance to display the "Total" value as well. My requirement is like below table. I am trying to add total value in dax measure but I am unable to acheive the results because we have displayed the variance instead of total value. kindly help me!!

DAX Reference : (to display the variance but I need total value as well)

IF (
        HASONEFILTER (Table1[Product]),
        SUM (Sales), Variance(YOY)
)

@Anno2019  - 

@Zubair_Muhammad  has a more thorough solution - my measure will only work for the scenario you specified, specifically 2018 and 2019.

Zubair, you are my new best friend...thank you kindly...will follow your instructions....
