    Hello,

     

    I am pretty sure that it only works with a dimension date table, so using this table your expression would be like the following:

     

    Prev Month count = CALCULATE([SKU_Count],dateadd(dim_date[.Calendar_date],-1,MONTH))

    Anonymous , not sure the name of date in date table, one of the following

    CALCULATE([SKU_Count],dateadd(dim_date[Calendar_date],-1,MONTH))

    CALCULATE([SKU_Count],dateadd(dim_date[Date],-1,MONTH))

    CALCULATE([SKU_Count],DATESMTD(dateadd(dim_date[Date],-1,MONTH)))
