Hi @ALEX2011ALfer_ ,

 

Did you mean which value is unique in the last 6 months?

Create measure via the following code and put it in filter pane on this visual and set it show items is 1, then you will see the unique value in the table.

Measure =
VAR _currentdate =
    TODAY ()
VAR _start =
    DATE ( YEAR ( _currentdate ), MONTH ( _currentdate ), 1 )
VAR _range =
    DATESINPERIOD ( 'Table'[Date], _start, -6, MONTH )
VAR _last_6_months_value =
    CALCULATETABLE ( 'Table', _range )
RETURN
    COUNTROWS ( _last_6_months_value )

 

Or you want to show the values which is not appear during last 6 months.

Value of last 6 months not the same =
VAR _currentdate =
    TODAY ()
VAR _start =
    DATE ( YEAR ( _currentdate ), MONTH ( _currentdate ), 1 )
VAR _range =
    DATESINPERIOD ( 'Table'[Date], _start, -6, MONTH )
VAR _last_6_months_value =
    CALCULATETABLE ( VALUES ( 'Table'[values] ), _range )
VAR _current_month =
    CALCULATETABLE ( VALUES ( 'Table'[values] ), DATESMTD ( 'Table'[Date] ) )
VAR _new_value =
    EXCEPT ( _current_month, _last_6_months_value )
RETURN
    CONCATENATEX ( _new_value, [values], " " )

 

Pbix file in the end you can refer.
