Calculating MTD using a fiscal calendar

My company uses a 4-4-5 fiscal calendar and I am having trouble figuring out a way to calculate month-to-date sales with this type of calendar. Any suggestions?

You need year period or period start date

 

Column
Period Rank = RANKX(all(Period),Period[year period],,ASC,Dense)//or period start date


This Period = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL(Period),Period[Period Rank]=max(Period[Period Rank])))
Last Period = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL(Period),Period[Period Rank]=max(Period[Period Rank])-1))

 

This Period = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL(Period),'Period'[Year]=max('Period'[Year]) && Period[Period]=max(Period[Period])))
Last year same Period = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL(Period),'Period'[Year]=max('Period'[Year])-1 && Period[Period]=max(Period[Period])))
