Hey,

it depends how you get the data. Do you get some additional data fields from which Month is being generated? Or you just have plain text months provided in one column?

In your data,  you have direct months only  in DB OR you are generating month from date field.

1.  If you have direct month data and if sequence is proper, then use this : 

=If(RowNo() = 1, 0,[EP Scanned]  - Above([EP Scanned]]))

2. If you have date field in data then extract that field and use this: 

=sum(if(dates>=MonthStart(today()) and dates <=MonthEnd(today()),[EP Scanned]  ))
-
sum(if(dates>=MonthStart(Addmonths(today(),-1)) and dates <=MonthEnd(Addmonths(today(),-1)),[EP Scanned]  ))

 

Regards
