    Hi az38 ,

     

    This works great! Thank you! Just one more question, can I apply this measure to calculate the previous month's forecast? I tried the following but it returns the same results:

    var _maxPrevDate = CALCULATE(MAX(Data[Forecast Date]),Data[Forecast Date]<=EOMONTH(TODAY(),-1))
