Last Year Label

Hi,

I have a small dataset that brings in some financials, a year field and a text field called Season.  I'm looking to have 2 sets of data, one for the max financial year selected and one for last.  The figures aren't an issue, they're working fine but it's the titles I'm struggling with.  For the max year =If(Max(Year)=Year,Season) works, but what do I need to do for the previous year?

Thanks

Where exactly are you showing this information? May be try this:

Only({<Year = {"$(=Max(Year) - 1)"}>}Season)

or

Concat({<Year = {"$(=Max(Year) - 1)"}>}Season, ', ')

=If((Max(Year) - 1) = Year, Season)
