I have to caluclate the previous year as per the prompt answer in report.

Why would you want to select a 'previous year' based on the year you choose. Instead choose the previous year itself.

But if you want to select all years before the selected year, go to your filter and use an attribute qualification where the yearID is set to filter out all years lesser than the ID of the year selected.

You can also use transformations.
 
Are you calculating the previous year for just some metrics and not others? What exactly are you getting at?
