    Hi RichOB,

     

    You can add a YearQuarter column to your existing Calendar table like below

     

    YearQuarter =
    'Calendar'[Year] & " Q" & 'Calendar'[Quarter]

     

    And then update your measure as 

     

    Active Counties =
    CALCULATE (
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( Properties[County] ),
    FILTER (
    Properties,
    Properties[Created_date] <= MAX ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) &&
    (
    ISBLANK ( Properties[Decommissioned_Date] ) ||
    Properties[Decommissioned_Date] > MIN ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
    )
    )
    )

     

    This way you don't have to add table/column manually and it'll be updated dynamically.
