I need to sum only sales of last year in the same store, same days and same month of  i had sales this year, something like this:

Id_store

Sales 2019

Sales 2020

1

75

158

2

23

367

3

0

643

*CURRENT YEAR OR SELECTED YEAR IS THE MANDATORY

For example:

in id_store =  1 and year 2019 only sum sales of days: 2, 4 and 6 because in the current year (2020) I just have sales these days.

in id_store = 2 and year 2019 only sum sales of day: 1 because is the only day with sales in 2020 that i had sales in 2019.

in id_store= 3 and year 2019 there is no days equals to current year so the sum of sales in 2019 is 0 but in 2020 is 643.

I´m trying using P() function but i'm not getting the expected result.

 

I attach an example of what i'm trying to do.

 

I would be very grateful if someone could help me or suggest another type of solution. Thank you very much everyone for the help.

Try this by creating two new fields in the script

Sales:
LOAD Date,
	 year(Date) as year,
	 day(Date) as day,
	 num(month(Date)) as month,
	 id_store,
	 sales,
	 id_store&'|'&Num(Date) as CurrentYearKey,
	 id_store&'|'&Num(AddYears(Date, -1)) as PreviousYearKey;
LOAD * INLINE [
    Date, id_store, sales
    2019-07-01, 1, 50
    2019-07-02, 1, 10
    2019-07-03, 1, 25
    2019-07-04, 1, 23
    2019-07-05, 1, 457
    2019-07-06, 1, 42
    2020-07-02, 1, 20
    2020-07-04, 1, 100
    2020-07-06, 1, 38
    2019-07-01, 2, 23
    2019-07-02, 2, 423
    2019-07-03, 2, 65
    2019-07-04, 2, 8765
    2019-07-05, 2, 34
    2019-07-06, 2, 123
    2019-07-07, 2, 346
    2019-07-08, 2, 54
    2019-07-09, 2, 45
    2019-07-10, 2, 54
    2020-07-01, 2, 200
    2020-07-11, 2, 167
    2020-07-01, 3, 234
    2020-07-13, 3, 643
];

and then use this expression for Last Year

Sum({<CurrentYearKey = p(PreviousYearKey), year>} sales)
