  • 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,
