Hi @Anonymous 

It depends on which dates you want to filter by when calculating the Sum. If you want to filter the table by Start Date, you can use the former one. If you want to filter the table by End Date, you can use the latter one. Here is a blog that may be helpful: How To Work With Multiple Dates In Power BI | Enterprise DNA
