edhans sorry, it's actually saying "The True/False expression does not specify a column. Each True/False expressions used as a table filter expression must refer to exactly one column"
I just had an extra ] last one but fixed it and after putting exactly this:
How do I fix?

edhans So now that I have it sorted like this, How do I put in the fiscal month names instead of the 6 digit number of "YearMonth?"
It seems when I try to drag in month names the volume LM dissappears...
Thank you so much for your help you have no idea how much I appreciate you

As long as this is a date table, you can keep whatever you want in the visual as long as it is at the same granularity of the YearMonth field we are working off of. If there is a year and month in the visual, then the filter context will return one YYYYMM value, and that is what the measure needs.
But again, with no images, no data, no image of the model, what you are asking me to do is like calling your mechanic over the phone and saying "my car is going RRrrrrRRRrmmRRRRkkkkk. Please tell me how to fix it."
