How to carry out a horizontal analysis

Hello, good morning!

I would like to carry out a horizontal analysis of a given month in relation to the previous month. This analysis would be displayed as a percentage.

Last weekend, with your help, we were able to do the vertical analysis. But now I need to do a horizontal analysis.

Thank you very much for your help.

Please provide a more detailed explanation of what you are aiming to achieve. What have you tried and where are you stuck? What is a "horizontal analysis" ?

Horizontal analysis is a percentage comparison of a month in relation to its previous month. I'd actually like to insert a dax function that performs this calculation. I tried but couldn't do it.

I want to know whether a given month has increased or decreased in relation to the previous period. This data in percentage form.

Do you want to use DAX formulas against the data model, or do you want to use Visual Calculations?
