Expression in Pivot Table

My Pivot table report is somehow looks like

Amount.PNG

To calculate the "Diff " column value I am using the expression

=if (Count ({$<PeriodName={$(=date(addmonths(PeriodName,-1)))}>} Amount) > 0, 1, 0)

Returning "1"or "0" just to check that expression is working fine, but its not working. Even though Amount is there for April, its returning "0" for May month.

Please do suggest where I am doing wrong in expression.

Thanks.

Hi Mayil,

I have tried that also but no success.

Anyways I got the expected result using the expression

=if( ColumnNo( )<>1,sum(Amount) - before(sum([Amount])) , 0 )
