CalendarFDOM = 
VAR Years = SELECTCOLUMNS(GENERATESERIES(2012,2025,1),"Year",[Value])
VAR Months = SELECTCOLUMNS(GENERATESERIES(1,12,1),"Month",[Value])
VAR YearMonth = GENERATE(Years,Months)
VAR CFDOM_0 = ADDCOLUMNS(YearMonth,"Date",DATE([Year],[Month],1))
VAR CFDOM = SELECTCOLUMNS(CFDOM_0,"Date",[Date])
RETURN
CFDOM

 

OR

 

CalendarFD = 
VAR Cal = CALENDAR(DATE(2012,1,1),DATE(2025,12,1))
VAR FDOM = FILTER(Cal,DAY([Date])=1)
RETURN
FDOM

You can use one of the following formula which works best for scenario

1. FirstDate 2= DATE(YEAR(MIN('Date'[Date])),MONTH(MIN('Date'[Date])),1)

2. Firstdate = MIN('Date'[Date])
