    Hi v-jiascu-msft,

     

    I am using filter instead as follow:

     

    TOTAL SALES YTD =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM (FACT[Sales] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Date' ),
            YEAR ( 'Date'[Date] ) = YEAR ( TODAY () )
                && 'Date'[Date] <= TODAY ()
        )
    )

    Thanks all for your help!
