I like @Tahreem24 's suggestion. Tough to say what will work though without sample source data. Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

 

That being said, ee if my Time Intelligence the Hard Way provides a different way of accomplishing what you are going for.

Do get that first create a year table, as you have take all filter, so that will cause an issue for other filters

Assume year table is

year = dictinct(table[year])//from current table
Last year =

CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(all(year),year[year]=max(year[year])-1))

I am checking on that if i can get the date column. Thanks

@Suhel_Ansari 

if you can get date column then create a time table and use formulas.

In can, you only have year you can create date like

date = date(year(table[year],1,1)

 

These formula's can help. Oce you have date

YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(('Date'[Date]),"12/31"))
Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year),"12/31"))
Last YTD complete Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year)),"12/31"))
Last to last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-2,Year),"12/31"))
Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))

 

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.

@Suhel_Ansari ,

 

Give a try to below measure:

 

MEasure = CALCULATE([Running Measure],SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Table'[Date]))

 

Or replace SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR with PREVOIUSYEAR().

@Tahreem24 
I don't have Date a column in my table, the year is a columns.. so i can't use the Sameperiod DAX Function in this issue. Thanks

@Suhel_Ansari ,

 

What is the format of your Year column? or share on same value of your Year column.

@Tahreem24 

The format is Whole Number, i can share the pbi file with sample data if you needed. Thanks

@Suhel_Ansari ,

 

Please share your PBI file by masking confidential data if any.

Well, Year should be in Date format not a whole number. This is a catch for incorrect result.

@Suhel_Ansari ,

 

Change your Year column whole number to Date format by Selecting year column --> Go to Modelling Tab --> Under Formatting option --> CHange Data type from Text to Date.

And then use the measure which I have given in previous post.
