Thank you very much Fowmy for your prompt reply.
This is the principle of slicers. When you select a month in a slicer, it will only show data relevant to your selection.
I recommend you create a date table as a slicer, but be careful not to create a relationship between the date table and the original table.Here's some dummy data
"Query1"
Create a Date table.
Date = SELECTCOLUMNS( 'Query1', "Date", 'Query1'[SetupDate], "Year", 'Query1'[SetupDate].[Year], "Month", 'Query1'[SetupDate].[MonthNo] )Select Year and Month from the Date table as slicers.
Create a measure.
PreviousMonthCount = VAR SelectYear = SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Year]) VAR SelectMonth = SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Month]) VAR PreviousMonthDate = EOMONTH(DATE(SelectYear, SelectMonth, 1), -1) RETURN CALCULATE( SUM(Query1[NewCount]), FILTER( ALL('Query1'), MONTH('Query1'[SetupDate]) = MONTH(PreviousMonthDate) && YEAR('Query1'[SetupDate]) = YEAR(PreviousMonthDate) && 'Query1'[SetupDate] <= PreviousMonthDate ) )Here is the result.
