YTD to Monthly Totals based on Unit

Hi

 

I am pretty new to DAX and am just looking for pointers to add a new column which pulls out the monthly totals by unit.

 

MonthUnitYTD
31/01/2022A50
31/01/2022B100
28/02/2022A70
28/02/2022B120
31/03/2022A100
31/03/2022B160
30/04/2022A130
30/04/2022B200

 

I have managed to use the following for coverting YTD to monthly without the Unit but really struggling with looking up the unit. Had a look into LOOKUPVALUE and can't seem to get it working.

 

Column =

VAR pv =

CALCULATE (
   MAX(Sales[YTD],

   Sales[Month] < EARLIER(Sales[Month]),

   REMOVEFILTERS(Sales)

)

IF(MONTH(Sales[Month]) = 1, Sales[YTD],

   Sales[YTD] - pv

)

 

Any help or guidance would be really appreciated!

@metcala So like this?

 

Column =

VAR pv =

CALCULATE (
   MAX(Sales[YTD],

   Sales[Month] < EARLIER(Sales[Month]) && Sales[Unit] = EARLIER(Sales[Unit]),

   REMOVEFILTERS(Sales)

)

IF(MONTH(Sales[Month]) = 1, Sales[YTD],

   Sales[YTD] - pv

)
