I created a graph showing the profit of each day in this month, and I am wondering how to also display the profit of same date in the previous month in this graph.Comparing profit of each day in this month with previous month

 

I used datetrunc in calculated field to create a new measure that returns the profit of the same date in previous month but it didn't go well...

May I ask for suggestions for solution? Thank you I will really appreciate it.

 

Sincerely,

Yuying

    Hi Yu Ying Lin, Please find the attached updated workbook.

    I have used the below three calculations to get the desired result :

    • Previous Month : LOOKUP(ATTR([Order Date]),-1)
    • Dete diff : DATEDIFF('month',[Previous Month],ATTR([Order Date]))
    • Previous Value : IF [Dete diff] =1 THEN [Previous Month Profit] ELSE NULL END

     

    Please do let me know in case of any queries and I hope matches your requirement.
