Relationship Works for Total Sales This Year, Breaks for Total Sales Last Year

[lbamburoski]

I have a date table, a store table, and a sales table. I have relationships set up between the date table and sales table and the stores table and the sales table. In the table visual I am trying to create, I am trying to look at the total sales for each store on a single day this year and compare it to 364 days ago. 

I've filtered the report page for a single day and added a table with a column for stores and two additional columns for measures.  My measure for sales this year is CALCULATE(SUM(TransactionAmount)) and my measure for sales last year is  CALCULATE(SUM(TransactionAmount), DATEADD(Dates[Date], -364, DAYS). The column for the current year's measure works fine. However, the column for last year's sales measure returns Blank for every store. However, the total for last year's sales across all stores is correct.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @lbamburoski ,

Try this measure:

last_364 = 
VAR CurrentDATE =
    MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] )

RETURN
    (
        CALCULATE (
            SUM ( SALES[sales]),
            FILTER (
                ALL ( 'Calendar' ),
                'Calendar'[Date]=CurrentDATE-364
            )
        )
    )

Best Regards,
Liang

@lbamburoski , is "dates" is marked as date table. Also Are you filter and axis/row/grouping of data from date table, whenever needed. My webinar link you can get pbix to download.

Appreciate your Kudos.

Try DATEADD(Dates[Date],-1,YEAR) instead.  Also, you probably don't need the CALCULATE() around your current year measure.

If this works for you, please mark it as solution.  Kudos are appreciated too.  Please let me know if not.
