    Hi,

    Try this measure

    Measure1 = CALCULATE([Actual Cost],DATESBETWEEN('Calendar'[Date],IF(MONTH(TODAY())>=9,DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),9,1),DATE(YEAR(TODAY())-1,9,1)),IF(MONTH(TODAY())=9,TODAY(),EDATE(TODAY(),-1))))

    Hope this helps.

    Hi,

    Try this measure

    Actual Cost since inception = CALCULATE([Actual Cost],DATESBETWEEN('List Period'[Date],MINX(ALL('Calendar'[Date]),'Calendar'[Date]),IF(MONTH(TODAY())=9,TODAY(),EDATE(TODAY(),-1))))

    Hope this helps.

Hi Ashish_Mathur ,

 

Thanks again for your measure ... Now I would like to do another measure Similar to this but instead of begining from September Last year I would like to consider ALL previous dates till Last month May'19 (or EndOfMonth) from my model .. per example My model have information since July 2016  so I would like to calculate from July 2016 to May'19 with a similar measure you provided to me: 

 

Actual Cost = CALCULATE([Actual Cost],DATESBETWEEN('List Period'[Date],IF(MONTH(TODAY())>=9,DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),9,1),DATE(YEAR(TODAY())-1,9,1)),IF(MONTH(TODAY())=9,TODAY(),EDATE(TODAY(),-1))))
 
I assume it would be the same formula but changing a few things only, right ? Do I need to post this as a new Subject ?
 
Thanks again in advance :
Regards.

      Hi Ashish_Mathur ,

       

      I tried the measure but is not working..  Is showing same amount that Previous one (YTD). I think the problem is that the following part needs to be removed but not sure how:

      ,IF(MONTH(TODAY())=9
       
      Thanks,

      Hi Ashish_Mathur ,

       

      Finally it worked.. I only removed the September part leaving the formula like this: 

       

      CTD Actual Cost = CALCULATE([Actual Cost],DATESBETWEEN('List Period'[Date],MINX(ALL('List Period'[Date]),'List Period'[Date]),EDATE(TODAY(),-1)))
       
      Thanks ! Regards.
