Hi,
I have the following calculated field formula in PowerPivot which calculates total expenses of the same month in the previous year
if(HASONEVALUE(calendar[Month]),CALCULATE([Total outflow],SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(calendar[Date])),BLANK())
In the row labels, I have Expenses heads and in column labels I have month. In the slicer, I have chosen Financial year 2015-16 (FY is from April 1 to March 31). Since data is only available for April and May, only these two months appear in the column labels of the Pivot Table. In yet another slicer, I have chosen only a few Expense heads.
When I drag this field to the row labels a Pivot Table, it works perfect. However, when I drag this field to a PowerView table, I get a message saying that SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR function will only work with Contiguous dates.
Why is this happening? Please help.
