    By reading that, this should be caused by the bidirectional relationship of the two calender tables.

     

    Although this may be be optimal (since I don't know if it is essential for you to keep the relationship between the calender table and water flow monthly)I, I think you can remove the relationship between that two calender tables, and then create another calender table. This should make you having 3 calender tables.

     

    And then use that 2 standalone calender table in your slicers and DAX.

    Please see if that works.

    Hi @johnyip, 

    Thanks for your help. 

    The dax are 

    Sum of Month 1 =
    CALCULATE(
       [total incoming],
        FILTER(
            'Water Flow Monthly',
            MONTH('Water Flow Monthly'[Timestamp])=MONTH(MAX('Calendar'[Date]))
            && YEAR('Water Flow Monthly'[Timestamp])=year(MAX('Calendar'[Date]))
        )
    )
    and 
    Sum of Month 2 =
    CALCULATE(
       [total incoming],
        FILTER(
            'Water Flow Monthly',
            MONTH('Water Flow Monthly'[Timestamp])=MONTH(MAX('Calendar (2)'[Date]))
            && YEAR('Water Flow Monthly'[Timestamp])=year(MAX('Calendar (2)'[Date]))
        )
    )
    I'm using two exact calendar table, because one calendar table cannot give me the different.
     
    Kind regards.
