    Hi,garimajain85.Hello, danextian, nandic.Thank you very much for your help with this issue.
    And now I want to share my advice with you.
    I am glad to help you.

    Regarding the issue you raised, my solution is as follows:
    1.First on your first question, the reason why metrics are affected when using a slicer is because the slicer changes the context, which may cause some metrics to return an error in that context, here's a link to that:

    Context in DAX Formulas - Microsoft Support

    2.First I have created the following table and the column names and data are the data you have given:


    3. Below are the measure I've created for your needs:

    Measure 2 = SWITCH(TRUE(),
    ISFILTERED('M'[manager]),IF(MONTH(SELECTEDVALUE(MON[1]))=MONTH(TODAY())-1,
    DIVIDE(CALCULATE(SUM('IFERROR'[Active count of employees]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('IFERROR'),'IFERROR'[manager]=MAX('IFERROR'[manager]))),AVERAGE('IFERROR'[Active count of employees])),
    FALSE()),
    SELECTEDVALUE(MON[1])<=TODAY(),DIVIDE(CALCULATE(SUM('IFERROR'[SALE]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('IFERROR'),MONTH('IFERROR'[month])=MONTH(SELECTEDVALUE(MON[1])))),
    CALCULATE(SUM('IFERROR'[Active count of employees]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('IFERROR'),MONTH('IFERROR'[month])=MONTH(SELECTEDVALUE(MON[1]))))),
    SELECTEDVALUE(MON[1])>TODAY(),DIVIDE(SUM('IFERROR'[SALE]),
    CALCULATE(MAX('IFERROR'[Active count of employees]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('IFERROR'),MONTH('IFERROR'[month])<MONTH(SELECTEDVALUE(MON[1]))))),
    FALSE())
    
    Measure = 
    VAR _a = SELECTEDVALUE('MON'[1])
    RETURN IF(_a =BLANK(),DIVIDE(SUM('IFERROR'[SALE]),SUM('IFERROR'[Active count of employees])), 
    [Measure 2])
    

    4.Here's my final result, which I hope meets your requirements.

    Can you share sample data and sample output in tabular format if I am misunderstanding? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data. We can better understand the problem and help you.
    Best Regards,
    Leroy Lu
