Hi @Syndicate_Admin,

You can try to use the following measure expression if it meets your requirement:

Measure =
VAR currDate =
    MAX ( Table[Date] )
VAR minDateCM =
    //min date of current month
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( Table[Date] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( Table ),
            YEAR ( [Date] ) = YEAR ( currDate )
                && MONTH ( [Date] ) = MONTH ( currDate )
        )
    )
VAR maxDatePM =
    //max date of previous month
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( Table[Date] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( Table ),
            [Date] < DATE ( YEAR ( currDate ), MONTH ( currDate ), 1 )
        )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        currDate = minDateCM,
        LOOKUPVALUE ( Table[Value], Table[Date], maxDatePM ),
        SUM ( Table[Value] )
    )

If the above not help, please share some dummy data with raw schema and expected result to test.

With help from the date table, try openingbalancemonth
