    Anonymous , At least one measure seems correct. Make sure the Calendar table is marked as the Date table.

     

    In case you do not need YTD only month data

    MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))

    last year MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-12,MONTH)))

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Please try this:

    YTD =
CALCULATE (
    COUNT ( 'Table'[Escalated to Lidl IT] ),
    DATESYTD ( 'Table'[Date] )
)
    Last YTD = VAR DataMaxDate =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[Date] ), ALL ('Table' ) )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        [YTD],
        SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR (
            INTERSECT (
                VALUES ( 'Table'[Date] ),
                DATESBETWEEN ( 'Table'[Date], BLANK (), DataMaxDate )
            )
        )
    )
