    Hi powerbinovice01 ,

    Based on the error message you received, it seems that the function is unable to work with the values of the string type SUMX. The function that you added to your modified measure converts the string values to numeric values, which is why you are now seeing values instead of blanks VALUE.

    TOTAL_b =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( 'Table'[Quantite B] ),
    FILTER (
        'Table',
        'Table'[YEAR_MONTH] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[YEAR_MONTH] )
            && 'Table'[Article] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Article] )
            && 'Table'[Quantite B] <> 0
    )
)

    This should allow you to filter the values correctly.
