Hi Syndicate_Admin ,
First of all, many thanks to for your very quick and effective replies.
Based on my testing, please try the following methods:
1.Create the simple table.
2.Drag the Period field into the slicer visual.
3.Create the new measure to calculate current sales.
Current per = var _select = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Period]) VAR _curren = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Current Sales]), FILTER('Table', 'Table'[Period] = _select)) RETURN _curren4.Create the new measure to calculate forcast sales.
Forcast per = VAR _per = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Period]) VAR _forca = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales Forecasting]), FILTER('Table', 'Table'[Period] = _per)) RETURN _forca5.Drag the measure into the KPI visual.
6.Select the period on the slicer visual. The result is shown below.
