Use the Last Value in a Matrix as the "Total"

We calculate and report OSHA TRIR monthly in a Matrix that has the "goal", "results" and "delta".
The challange is to have the last or latest value as the "Total"

PaulBethancourt_0-1675962554263.png

I use the current formula which is part of a Switch with about 60 metrics:

Results = (if(HASONEVALUE(T_Metric_Input_History[Metric])
,switch(values('T_Metric_Input_History'[Metric])
,"OSHA TRIR",format(average(T_Metric_Input_History[Results]),"0.00")

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

@PaulBethancourt , use a measure like on top of you measure

 

if(not isinscope(Date[year Month]),calculate(lastnonblankvalue(Date[year Month], [Measure]),allselected(Date[year Month])),[Measure])

I have the following table with a DAX that calculates the variation versus the previous month and I want the total to be equal to the last month with data (marked in yellow) could you help me how to modify the DAX please

KPI Sales LM Test =
WERE Difference = [Total Sales]-[Total LM Sales]
WERE Address =
SWITCH(
TRUE()
, Difference> 0, "▲"
,Difference < 0, "▼"
,"●"
)
WERE Percentage =
IF( [Total LM Sales] = 0,1,
Difference/[Total LM Sales])

RETURN
"LM: " & Address & " " & FORMAT(Percentage,"0.00%") & " | (" & FORMAT(Difference,"##,##") & ")"

amitchandak, you are a rock star!

Thank you very much!

I made a minor change in order to use the Result column since it wasn't a measure.

I used an average of it.

,"OSHA TRIR",format(if(not isinscope('Date table'[YRMO]),calculate(lastnonblankvalue('Date table'[YRMO],average(T_Metric_Input_History[Results])),allselected('Date table'[YRMO])),average('T_Metric_Input_History'[Results])),"0.00")
