for April - Mar HC + April Joiners- April Endings and that will become my HC for April
for May - April HC +May Joiners- Mat Endings
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi,
Share data in a format that can be pasted in an MS Excel file.
Thank you @Ashish_Mathur for your response,
I assume this will work

You haven't provided any data so I'm guessing how your tables look and the data contained in them. But using the sample data I created in the PBIX file linked above, you can get what you want with these measures
Prev HC = CALCULATE(SUM('Actual Headcount'[Actual HC]), PREVIOUSMONTH('Actual Headcount'[Date]))
Future HC = [Prev HC] + SUM('Future Starts'[Future Starts]) - SUM('Future Endings'[Future Endings])

Thank you for your response @PhilipTreacy
I should have explained the situtaion in details ;
So when we are calulating headcount for May, calculation should be Aprils new new headcount(1743 in this case)+ May's Joiners- May's endings..
