Hey,

 

you can uses this DAX statement to create your measure

Measure = 
var yearToday = YEAR(TODAY())
var yearStart = yearToday - 3
var theDatesTable = DATESBETWEEN('Calendar'[Date], DATE(yearStart, 6, 30),DATE(yearToday, 6, 30))
return
CALCULATE(
	SUM('FactWithDates'[Amount])
	,theDatesTable
)

Please be aware that this Measure heavily relies on the common practice to use a separate calendar/date table, where this date table relates to your fact table, please also have a look to at this site where a lot of common date related calculations are explained: daxpatterns.com/time-patterns

 

Hm, I'm wondering if your start should be 7/1/year(today())-3 (representing the 1st of July 3 years ago), if you want to cover complete 12 months.

 

Regards

Tom

This should work just adjust to your table and column names:

 

Measure = calculate(COUNT(PBIDataSource[No.]), filter(ALLSELECTED(PBIDataSource),

  PBIDataSource[Date] > date(2017,01,01) &&
  PBIDataSource[Date] < date(2017,02,01)

 )

)
