    If I understand correctly, your date column doesn't contain different days, just different months per different years.

    Please, try this measure, worked for me with the next data structure:

    #FY2 = 
VAR currentYear = IF(MONTH(SELECTEDVALUE(T[Date])) < 4, YEAR(SELECTEDVALUE(T[Date])) - 1,YEAR(SELECTEDVALUE(T[Date])))
VAR monthsInCurrentYear = 
CALCULATE(
    DISTINCTCOUNT(T[Date]),
    FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED(T), 
        currentYear = IF(MONTH(T[Date]) < 4, YEAR(T[Date]) - 1,YEAR(T[Date]))
    )
)
VAR Result = IF(monthsInCurrentYear = 12,
    currentYear,
    0
)
RETURN Result

ERD Thank you ! I just got an other question, in your previous code what if I want an other filter than date. For exemple I got a column called name and I would like to filter by name. It doesn't work.

I try to replace the T[Date] of all selected in my column by T[Name] but it put me 0 all over the column.

If I add it like this 

ALLSELECTED(T[DATE],T[Column2])
It doesn't work and put me the year even if there is only one month in the year.
Thank you!!
