@wanda619 My mistake.  Should be -0w@w.

* earliest=-2w@w latest=-0w@w
| bin span=1w@w _time
| stats count by CustomerName Error _time
| stats earliest(count) as ResultPrev latest(count) as Result max(_time) as _time by CustomerName Error
| eventstats sum(Result) as "Percent of Total"
| eval "Percent Difference" = round((Result - ResultPrev)/ResultPrev * 100, 2), "Percent of Total" = round(Result / 'Percent of Total' * 100, 2)

If "Results" column is 0, that means count in the first stats command is also 0, i.e., if you run

* earliest=-2w@w latest=-0w@w
| bin span=1w@w _time
| stats count by CustomerName Error _time

count should all be zero.  Can you confirm that?  Maybe there's some spelling error?  Does the main search return anything?

You didn't specify how frequently data is collected, so I'll assume that they can be aggregated into as a weekly stats by something like earliest=-2w@w latest=0w@w.  With this assumption, you can do

* earliest=-2w@w latest=0w@w
| bin span=1w@w _time
| stats count by CustomerName Error _time
| stats earliest(count) as ResultPrev latest(count) as Result max(_time) as _time by CustomerName Error
| eventstats sum(Result) as "Percent of Total"
| eval "Percent Difference" = round((Result - ResultPrev)/ResultPrev * 100, 2), "Percent of Total" = round(Result / 'Percent of Total' * 100, 2)

Of course, replace "*" with your real search.
