Example
The following sample formula creates a measure that calculates the 'next quarter sales' for the Internet sales.
To see how this works, create a PivotTable and add the fields, CalendarYear and CalendarQuarter, to the Row Labels area of the PivotTable. Then add a measure, named Next Quarter Sales, using the formula defined in the code section to the Values area of the PivotTable.
=CALCULATE(SUM(InternetSales_USD[SalesAmount_USD]), NEXTQUARTER('DateTime'[DateKey]))
