Do you already have the variables created in Qlik Sense? -> $(vPriorMonth) $(vPriorYear) and $(vPriorMonth) $(vMaxYear)

Your syntax is OK, so the problem must be to do with the variables.

try displaying the variables as a measure in a KPI visualisation object to see what's happening.  It helped me when debugging variable content.
