[Anonymous]

Hello guys,

I am relatively new to power BI DAX.

I am trying to calculate the difference between Q1 2018 and Q4 2019.

Please guide me how to proceed.

I have created Calendar table and tried to use some Time intelligence calculations as well.

Below is link has the test data csv I am working on.

Hi, @Anonymous 

Please check the below picture and the sample pbix file's link, whether it is what you are looking for.

All measures are in the sample pbix file, and steps are numbered in fron of each measure.

Hey @Anonymous ,

load the data to Power BI, create a date table and connect it to your data table.

Then you can create your measure and analyze it for the current quarter.

Create a second measure and change the time you want to analyze to 21 months in the past:

MyMeasure 21 Month ago =
CALCULATE(
    [MyMeasure],
    DATEADD( DateTable[Date], -21, MONTH )
)

That should be your solution,

If you need any help please let me know.

If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍

Best regards
