Fill in missing values in a Matrix

I have a matrix pulling from a table with incomplete data. A record is created when the value changes. If the value stays the same between years, there's no record. If a given year is newer than the change year, I want the value of the column to be the last valid entry for that item. 

Rows is Item No
Column is Year
Value is a measure that's supposed to fill in Empty Values: 


Latest Lead Time =
VAR CurrentYear = YEAR(MAX('lead time history'[Year]))
RETURN
    IF(
        ISBLANK(MAX('lead time history'[Clean New Lead Time])),
        CALCULATE(
            LASTNONBLANK('lead time history'[Clean New Lead Time], 0),
            FILTER(
                ALL('lead time history'),
                'lead time history'[item no] = SELECTEDVALUE('lead time history'[item no]) &&
                'lead time history'[Year] <= CurrentYear
            )
        ),
        MAX('lead time history'[Clean New Lead Time])
    )

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

first we need create a table:

Table = GENERATESERIES(MIN('lead time history'[Year]),MAX('lead time history'[Year]),1)

then create a measure:

Measure = 
VAR CurrentItem = MAX('lead time history'[Item No])
VAR CurrentYear = MAX('Table'[Year])
RETURN
    CALCULATE(
        MAX('lead time history'[Clean New Lead Time]),
        FILTER(
            ALL('lead time history'),
            'lead time history'[Item No] = CurrentItem
            && 'lead time history'[Year] <= CurrentYear
        )
    )

model:

result:

That calculation isn't giving me the right answers. For example:
