Rolling Returns Issue. please help

Hi All,

I want to calculate QTD, MTD, YTD and 1Yr,2Yr and 5 Yr rolling returns based on Category P and I for the attached dataset .

when i tried using the quick measure, it fails and gives a error "Time intelligence quick measures can only be grouped or filtered by the Power BI-provided date hierarchy or primary date column." and was not able to proceed.

Can someone please check and help .Thanks
