As mentioned, the solution is solely based on the sample data. If there are multiple payments within the same month, the lookupvalue formula needs to be tweaked and some other calculations as well. Please see attached modified pbix.
Hi @PoewrBIUser ,
If you want to achieve what you are expecting, it is a rather tricky one and will require a lot of brain cells.
Below is the closest I could get to.
The solution requires a lot of calculated column and solely based on the provided data. Please see atttached pbix for your reference.

But I don't see this working for someone who made 2 payments in the same month, are there any other possible solution?
