Relative Date Filter Within Measure
I have data for our sales leads however I am needing to create a table in PBI to show the following: Leads from previous month & Leads from current month but all in one table.
I need to have columns like the below:
How do I create a measure to show in the second column sales leads created this month and then in the next column leads created last month. Slicers and filters obviously effects everything not just a column.
Any help would be much appreciated.

SS87UK , You can use time intelligence with date table
example
MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))
last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))
last month Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),previousmonth('Date'[Date]))Power BI — Month on Month with or Without Time Intelligence

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.
