Hi @Dev_Pat
Can you provide the expected output based on your sample table? Currently I don't understand what should be the expected result. Thanks.

Hi @v-jingzhang ,
Volume_2019 column is the expected column from first 4 column.
Can we write MDX code to get 5th column? irrespective of year in month column, can we get the number of 2019 in new calcuated column?
Thanks

Market-1 | Category-1 | 1/1/2021 | 60.39 | 39.16 |
Market-2 | Category-1 | 1/1/2020 | 0.59 | 39.16 |

Hi @Dev_Pat
I don't know much about MDX. If it's possible to use DAX, you can use below codes:
Column =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table'[Volume] ),
ALL ( 'Table' ),
YEAR ( 'Table'[Month] ) = 2019,
MONTH ( 'Table'[Month] ) = MONTH ( EARLIER ( 'Table'[Month] ) )
)
