Hi @novel ,

 

The current system does not support this function. You can post your idea to Ideas .

You can use the following methods instead or use custom visuals.

 

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) This is my test data.

(2) We can create six calculated columns.

 

 

 

current month = IF( MONTH('Table'[date]) =MONTH(TODAY()), "current month" & 'Table'[date],BLANK())
last month = IF(MONTH('Table'[date])+1=MONTH(TODAY()),"last month" &'Table'[date],BLANK()) 
last to last month = IF(MONTH('Table'[date])+2=MONTH(TODAY()),"last to last month" & 'Table'[date],BLANK()) 
QTD_x = QUARTER('Table'[date])
YTD = TOTALYTD(SUM('Table'[value]),DimDate[Date])
QTD = TOTALQTD(SUM('Table'[value]),DimDate[Date])

 

 

 

(3) Then the result is as follows.

Hello @Anonymous 

Thanks for the solution but with the values for "Sales", "Quantity", "Growth" can only be created with measure as those calculations are dependent on filters and conditions. Along with them there are almost eight different measure are there. 

Also thanks for sharing the links, but I've tried most of the possible ways but still it isn't working.
