Hi , @orana 

Accoring to your descriprion , you want to  create column CY. 

And for your data , it seems only the "Oct,Nov and Dec“ return the last year.

If this , you can just use the IF() function to judge.

You can click "New Column" and enter this:

Column = IF([Month] in {"Oct","Nov","Dec"},[Fy]-1,[Fy])

 

Then we can get the result like this:

Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI! 

 

Best Regards,
