Flags for this period vs previous period

@pete.langlois,

If I can make a suggestion (two, actually) to go down another track:
a) this task is much better suited to Power Query than DAX

The daily, weekly, monthly and yearly offsets in this date table will make this calculation a breeze.

Here’s the link to the date table code:

Should give you everything you need, but if you still have questions just give a shout.

I hope this is helpful.
