Hi @Anonymous ,
You also need to add the year to the filtering:
Measure =
VAR temp_table =
FILTER (
SUMMARIZE ( ALL ( 'Table' ); 'Table'[DAte]; 'Table'[Headcount] );
'Table'[Month] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Month] ) &&
'Table'[Year] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Year] )
)
RETURN
CALCULATE ( SUMX ( temp_table; 'Table'[Headcount] ) )

Check out my blog: Power BI em PortuguêsHi @Anonymous ,
You can try the following measure:
Measure =
VAR temp_table =
FILTER (
SUMMARIZE ( ALL ( 'Table' ); 'Table'[DAte]; 'Table'[Headcount] );
'Table'[DAte] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[DAte] )
)
RETURN
CALCULATE ( SUMX ( temp_table; 'Table'[Headcount] ) )
Be aware that you don't refer if the date is based I have made an example with all dates being the same for the same period, but you can change the filtering to add the month / year if you have those columns instead of the date.
check PBIX file attach.
