How to Create Custom Rows of Aggregated Data

Hello,

 

I am creating a matrix that looks at sales by month from a specific start date, but I also need to add custom date ranges that look at months 1-6 combined, 1-12 combined, all months after the first year combined, and total months.  I am not sure how to create the custom aggregated rows.  Ultimately looking for how to calculate something like the last three rows below...

 

MonthSales CountTotal Sales
3/1/20206$84
4/30/20205$210
5/31/20206$126
6/30/20203$75
7/31/20209$279
8/31/20208$168
3/2020 - 5/202017$420
6/2020 - 8/202120$522
3/2020 - 8/31/202037$942

User this DAX to the matrix:

 

 

Sales counts =

Not part of the standard visual functionality.  Consider using separate visuals.

Can you elaborate?  So if the visual doesn't have the functionality then I would need to import another facts/data table with the aggregated date values and then have a separate visual referencing just that table.  Is that a correct assumption?  Thanks for the help!
