As a best practice, add a date dimension in your model and use it for time intelligence calculations. Once the date dimension is added, mark it as a date table on table tools. Check the related videos on my YT channel

Mark date dimension as a date table - why and how?
Time Intelligence PlaylistAfter date dimension is added , measure will look something like this:
All Time RT = CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( Table[Column] ), FILTER ( ALL ( DateTable[Date] ), DateTable[Date] <= MAX ( DateTable[Date] ) ), <<your containsstring expression here>> )

Hi parry2k ,
Thank you for your help. I already had a Date dimension in place. I wasn't able to find the right expression for the measure. Your message did the trick:
Total PRO Implementations =
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'modifications'[implementation_id] ),
CONTAINSSTRING ( 'modifications'[description], "Desplegado en PRO" ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'FullDate' ),
'FullDate'[Date] <= MAX ( 'FullDate'[Date] )
)
)
Thank you and regards!
