    Hi, 1st use this
    Forecast_Value =
    VAR SelectedValue = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[selectedvalue_tekst])
    RETURN
    IF(ISBLANK(SelectedValue), BLANK(),
    DIVIDE(MAX('Table'[Forecast]), 12)
    )

    Hi,

    Thanks for the solution johnbasha33  provided, and i want to offer some more information for user to refer to.

    hello Troekoe , based on your descrition, you can refer to the following solution.

    Sample data is the same as you provided.

    1.Create a calculated column in table.

     

    Month_num = MONTH(CONVERT([Month]&" "&1,DATETIME))

     

    2.Create a paramater table

    3.Create the following measures

     

    Forecast = MAXX(FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),[Month_num]=[Parameter Value]),[SUMCUM])
    Display_for = IF(SUM('Table'[SUMCUM])=[Forecast],[Forecast]) 
    For_Month = DIVIDE([Forecast],12)

     

    Output

     

     

     

     

     

    The measure changes dynamically.

     

    Best Regards!
