Hi @Anonymous,

 

Try the demo in the attachment. I hope you didn't share any sensitive data here.

1. Create a date table;

2. Establish a relationship;

3. Create a measure.

Measure =
TOTALYTD ( SUM ( Table1[Amount] ), 'Calendar'[Date] )

I need to be dynamic for example if there is a forecast version with data till the end of the year and actual version is only till October.  Then YTD amount for forecast should be until October for all projects.  I am basically looking for a column with YTD running total to be pulled into the report bcos these projects are later grouped differentlyy.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

How about this one? The calculated column may not be a good idea.

Measure 2 =
VAR maxDate =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( Table1[Fiscal year/period|Key Figures] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table1' ), 'Table1'[VERSION] = "Actual" )
    )
RETURN
    TOTALYTD (
        SUM ( Table1[Amount] ),
        'Calendar'[Date],
        'Calendar'[Date] <= maxDate
    )
