Hello,
I'm trying to calculate future 3 months labour hours based on current month. However as my labour hours is a measure and not column I dont know how I can add it based on month position measure. I tried below formula but it gives me error.
| Month position vs current month | 0 | 1 | 2 | Labour hours | Month position vs current month | Column | |
| Project Name | Oct-23 | Nov-23 | Dec-23 | (Expected Result) | Project Name | Column | |
| A | 5400 | 200 | 4000 | 9600 | Labour hours | Measure | |
| B | 2200 | 1490 | 4540 | 8230 | |||
| C | 2400 | 5800 | 1000 | 9200 |
I'm new to Power BI DAX queries so any pointers much appreciated?
Thanks
Mona

Hi Team Charlotte,

based on current month
Please define what you mean by that. "current" in Power BI usually means "the filter context I am in for this visual element".
Hi,
There is a column 'Month position vs current month' in my data source and it shows result as '0','1','2' and so on. As I'm looking at the report in Oct-23 this column represents '0' as month position.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
M
