Hi Team Good Day!

I am New to Quick sight.

I have FinancialYear(Like 2024-25, 2025-26) and Month( Like April, May) and Amount filed are there.

when Financial Year Filter selects like 2025-26 needs to display current year and previous year comparison month wise.
Don’t have full date in my data.

How to achieve this.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi @middeanusha2001

Welcome to the Quick Suite community!

Please refer to the following official documentation for implementing comparative financial year calculations in Quick Suite.

Thank you sharing the documentation but here i don’t have full date column, only Financial Year (Ex: 2025-26) and Month(Ex: April) are available.

How to do in that cases?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi @middeanusha2001

Since you don’t have a full date column, I recommend creating a calculated date field by combining your FinancialYear and Month fields

Create calculated field ConstrustedDate (Date type).

Note - Replace the fields from your dateset.

parseDate(concat(‘01-’, {Month}, ‘-’, substring({FinancialYear}, 1, 4)), ‘dd-MM-yyyy’)

Use this ConstructedDate field with built-in periodOverPeriodDifference functions for month or year wise comparisons.

Please refer to the below documentation this might be helpful for you.
