How can I display % change against last year's week in Dynamic Textbox?

caiopimenta

Hello everyone,

I am trying to create a little bit of dashboard storytelling and show the % change from week X in 2022 against week X in 2021.

I am looking to do that inside the dynamic textbox. Is that possible?

Thank you so much

Here's a more detailed writeup of how to configure a date dimension dataset which will go over how to set up everything and allow you to do simple YoY or PoP % calculations.

You’d need to calculate it in a beast mode and then use that value in the text

Thank you for the answer. Very helpful.

Can you give me an example of how this calculation would look like inside beast mode?
