Hello @Malinpetersson ,

I would start by classifying each sales year in your calendar table.

A calculated column like this should do the trick. 

Column = 
VAR minYear = IF([Month] > 8 , [Year] , [Year] -1 )
VAR maxYear = IF([Month] < 7 , [Year] , [Year] +1 )
Return
IF([Month]=7 || [Month]=8 , BLANK() , "01-09-" & minYear & " - 30-06-" & maxYear )

Then use this column to filter your sales and you should get the correct amounts i believe.
