Hi joyceleeyw ,
One sample for your reference, please check the following steps as below.
1. Create a calculated column in the fact table.
YM = FORMAT('Table'[date],"yyyymmmm")2. After that, we can create measures as below to get P12 or P6 average.
average p12M = VAR A = MAX ( 'Table'[date] ) VAR p12 = EDATE ( A, -12 ) RETURN DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[value] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date] >= p12 && 'Table'[date] <= A ) ), CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[YM] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date] >= p12 && 'Table'[date] <= A ) ) )average p6M = VAR A = MAX ( 'Table'[date] ) VAR p12 = EDATE ( A, -6 ) RETURN DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[value] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date] >= p12 && 'Table'[date] <= A ) ), CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'Table'[YM] ), FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[date] >= p12 && 'Table'[date] <= A ) ) )For more details, please check the pbix as attached.

SUMX (LD_PBI, IF(LD_PBI[Value % Share]>0,1))
If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos are nice too.

Can you include more period? i.e. from jan 17 to jan 19. the denominator has to still be 9 for a P12M average
