Table Column headers based on measure

Hi

 

I have the following table showing current stock balance and the forceasts and balances over the next 3 months.

I would like to change the column headers to use the dynamic Month name instead of +1, +2,+3 etc. For example, i could use a measure to return the desired name.

TMN+2 = (Format(EOMONTH(TODAY(),+2),"MMM"))&" " & "Bal."

Is there any way to use dynamic values or measures as column header values??

@kleighton , You can have measures like

 

next 3 and last 3  =
var _max = eomonth( today() ,3)
var _min = date(year(_max), month(_max)-6,1)
return
CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(date, date[date] <=_max && date[date] >=_min))
