Same day previous years

I need a little help in setting some flags in my script.  I set a variable so I know what today's date is, but I need to get the same day previous year.  I have 5 years in my calendar.  Here is my script if anyone can help thanks.

CurrentDate:
LOAD FISPD,
FISYR,
[Billing Date] as Date,
WEDAT,
WKNO
FROM [D:\Qlikview\New Sales\QVD\ZZZWEDAT DaveyTree v1.0.qvd] (qvd)
where [Billing Date] = '$(vToday)';

LET vFisYr = peek('FISYR', 0, 'CurrentDate');
LET vFisPd = peek('FISPD', 0, 'CurrentDate');
LET vWkNo = peek('WKNO', 0, 'CurrentDate');

DROP TABLE CurrentDate;

Try using the AddYears function
This function returns the date occurring n years after startdate or, if n is negative, the date occurring n years before startdate.

addyears(startdate, n)
so for your case ..
Let vLYday = addyears('$(vToday)', -1);
