ALLSELECTED() in Calculation Groups Not Working as Expected

Hi All

 

It appears that ALLSELECTED() operates as ALL() within calculation groups. The below calculation worked fine before I moved it to a calculation group, but now the measure does not respond to changes to the date filter coming from a slicer. When I remove the ALLSELECTED() filter, it responds as expected.

 

CALCULATE(SELECTEDMEASURE(), DATESINPERIOD(DateTable[Date], LASTDATE(ALLSELECTED(DateTable[Date])), -12, MONTH))

 

Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is and what alternative I can use?

@EP1 , If you do use allselected that it should take max of context will be taken. If you use allselected, as per me, it should use the last available date or page or calendar

 

CALCULATE(SELECTEDMEASURE(), DATESINPERIOD(DateTable[Date], LASTDATE((DateTable[Date])), -12, MONTH))

 

If this does not help
Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

@amitchandak, that is the expected behaviour, but that is not the behaviour that I am getting. However, when I created a simple model, I could not recreate the issue. I will check for other issues that might be affecting my measures. Thanks for your help!
