Hi @FR14 ,

 

You can update your measure.

Measure=
VAR __MaxDate = MAX('Dates'[Date])
RETURN
CALCULATE(
    SUM(OrderLine[Booking USD]),
    DATESYTD(DATEADD(__MaxDate, -1, YEAR))
)

Or:

VAR __MaxDate = MAX('Dates'[Date])
VAR __StartOfLastYear = DATE(YEAR(__MaxDate) - 1, 1, 1)

RETURN
CALCULATE(
    SUM(OrderLine[Booking USD]),
    OrderLine[Open_Date] >= __StartOfLastYear,
    OrderLine[Open_Date] <= __MaxDate
)
