Hi @IfaZ_1 ,

 

Try the expression:

MoM Total Ticket = var _t = ADDCOLUMNS('Page 1',"Pre",SUMX(FILTER(ALL('Page 1'),YEAR([Date])=YEAR(EARLIER([Date]))&&[MonthNum]=EARLIER([MonthNum])-1),[Total Tickets]))
RETURN MAXX(_t,[Pre])

 

Hope it helps!

@IfaZ_1 , First make sure you have one separate date table for this then use PREVIOUSMONTH and reference date table date and create relation with your table

 

PreviousMonthTickets =
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(TicketsTable),
PREVIOUSMONTH(DateTable[Date])
)
