I am working on this exact same issue.  Anybody have an idea on this?

I am counting distinct values over time but in the accumulation it is not discounting the distinct values from the previous months in the selection.

Hi Aaron,

I found a formula to count the values ​​do not included in the previous month:

if (count(Period_MonthName)>1, MinString(Period_MonthName),Period_MonthName)

But I don't know how to transform this expresion to dimension! Do you have an idea?

Best regards.
