Sales of current and prev. Month

Hi together,

i want to display to KPI's.

First is sales of current month and second is Sales of previous month. Everything should work dynamic linked to the selected month in the filter pane. 

I already tried this: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/June2020/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Measures/create-calendar...

Do i have to do something in advance?

 

Many thanks

All you need is a date field and you can create month using the date field like below

 

Month(Date) as Month

 

then use the Month in set analysis for current month like below

sum({<Month={'$(=Max(Month))'}>}sales)

Where do i have to calculate that?

"Month(Date) as Month"

 

And how do i get the prev. month? Month -1?

In your load script crate the month field

 

and previous month in a chart expression like this

Sum({<Month={'$(=max(month)-1)'}>}sales)

 

Share some sample data to replicate this

Now i tried your reply, but did not work. First step creation of Month and then visualize with formula. Whats wrong?
