Hi @NewbieJono 

You may try these measures for Current YTD and Last Year YTD in the same date range. 

YTD =
VAR maxDate = CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'DateTable'[Date] ), ALL ( 'DateTable' ) )
VAR curYear = YEAR ( maxDate )
VAR startDate = DATE ( IF ( MONTH ( maxDate ) < 4, curYear - 1, curYear ), 4, 1 )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[volume] ),
        ALL ( 'DateTable'[Date] ),
        'DateTable'[Date] >= startDate,
        'DateTable'[Date] <= maxDate
    )

LY YTD =
VAR maxDate = EDATE ( CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'DateTable'[Date] ), ALL ( 'DateTable' ) ), -12 )
VAR curYear = YEAR ( maxDate )
VAR startDate = DATE ( IF ( MONTH ( maxDate ) < 4, curYear - 1, curYear ), 4, 1 )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[volume] ),
        ALL ( 'DateTable'[Date] ),
        'DateTable'[Date] >= startDate,
        'DateTable'[Date] <= maxDate
    )

Hi,

Share data in a format that can be pasted in an MS Excel file.  For that dummy dataset, show the expected result.
