    Hi, Diva20 

     

    It’s my pleasure to answer for you.

    According to your description,You should have a date column or a date table, and your oppurtunities column seems to be a measure, so ,you can add a separate month column as a slicer through ‘enter data’,then create a measure to calculate the desired result.

    Like this:

    Variance P + Companies =
    VAR a =
        SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table (2)'[Month] )
    VAR b =
        CALCULATE (
            [Measure],
            FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Month] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Month] ) )
        )
    VAR c =
        CALCULATE (
            [Measure],
            FILTER (
                ALL ( 'Table' ),
                'Table'[Month] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table (2)'[Month] )
            )
        )
    RETURN
        IF ( ISBLANK ( [Measure] ), 0, c - b )

    Here is my sample .pbix file.Hope it helps.

    If it doesn’t solve your problem, please feel free to ask me.
