Sales Percentage Change Current Month over Same Month Last Year

‎12-30-2017 05:16 AM

Power BI All Stars:

 

I have 10 years worth of sales data - seeking help with calculating the percentage change for current month (November 2017) over same month last year (November 2016).  Also, is there a way to calculate YTD %'age change - e.g., Jan - Nov 2017 versus Jan - Nov 2016?

 

Thank you for helping a Power BI novice!  ~DentonBlake

1. Exclude from the table the columns [total_recipets], [TABC_SALES], [Quarter], [Day]

Do not forget that the KPI you created is monthly, any column you use can lead to inconsistencies in the data.
And the most appropriate filter is YEAR.
Include a YEAR SEGMENTATION.

It will get better.

 

if your issue has been resolved, otherwise, please feel free to ask if you have any other issue.
Best Regards,
Rfranca
