    Try this one

     

    Column =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[MetricValue] ),
        DATEADD ( Table1[Date], -1, MONTH ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Date] )
    )
    

     or this one

     

    Column =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[MetricValue] ),
        FILTER (
            Table1,
            Table1[Date].[MonthNo]
                = EARLIER ( Table1[Date].[MonthNo] ) - 1
        )
    )

    Did you use first formula?

    Could you show your formula?

     

    Column =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[MetricValue] ),
        DATEADD ( Table1[Date], -1, MONTH ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Date] )
    )
  • Hi atul9063,

     

    By my tests, the last formula from Zubair_Muhammad should solve your problem.

    atul9063 Please try this as a "New Column"

     

    PrevMetric = LOOKUPVALUE(Test56PrevVal[Metric],Test56PrevVal[Date],DATEADD(Test56PrevVal[Date],-1,MONTH))

        atul9063 You are not referencing the correct field in the third parameter of LOOKUPVALUE. Please try this..

         

        PreviousMonthMetricValue = LOOKUPVALUE(vw_Engmt_Metrices[MetricValue],vw_Engmt_Metrices[dt],DATEADD(vw_Engmt_Metrices[dt],-1,MONTH))
