You may either:

  1. Have a calendar date (best practice), which would have a Year-Month column and would connect to your fact table by date;
  2. Create a Year-Month column. You may do that at the source, or in Power Query. If you do that, change that column's format to something like 2022-04.CreateCreateFormatFormatVictory!Victory!
