Get the month of December of the previous year

[Malini]

Being new to Qliksense, I need a little help.

I would like to analyze data month by month with the following formula:

=(sum(SUBL) / above(sum(SUBL))) -1

I have to get each time the previous month with the 'above'. When I use a Year-Month dimension (=Date(MonthStart(Date_link), 'MMM-YYYY') everything works correctly. However, I want to have a dimension per month (=Month(Date_link)). So I created three bar chart for each year I want to analyze.

For the current year:

=(sum({$<Year_first={$(=Year(Today()))}, Month_link =>}SUBL) / above(sum({$<Year_first={$(=Year(Today()))}, Month_link =>}SUBL))) -1

the previous year:

=(sum({$<Year_first={$(=Year(Today())-1)}, Month_link =>}SUBL) / above(sum({$<Year_first={$(=Year(Today())-1)}, Month_link =>}SUBL))) -1

two years before:

=(sum({$<Year_first={$(=Year(Today())-2)}, Month_link =>}SUBL) / above(sum({$<Year_first={$(=Year(Today())-2)}, Month_link =>}SUBL))) -1

(The Month_link has been added so that the graph does not react to any month selections of the filter pane month.)

It leaves me with histograms that display no value for January, I believe that Qlik does not manage to get the previous year.

How do I do this?

 Could someone help me ?
