Hi insandur 

 

Try this measure for previous monh calcuation

 

PrevMonth= Calculate(Sum(sales), DateAdd( 'Calendar'[Date], -1, Month))
Or

Prev Month= Calcuate ( Sum( Sales), ParallelPeriod( 'Calendar'[Date],-1, Month))

 

I hope I answered your question!

    HI insandur 

     

    If you dont have contineous date then you may not get the result.

     

    Try to create calendar table then use the same measure.

    Calendar Tabel= Calendar( Min(FC month), Max(FC month))


    Make sure your FC month is date format should not be a text data type.

     

    I hope I answered your question!
