MTD and YTD based on today's date

Hello Everyone,

 

I'm hoping someone can assist me with this. I'd like to add two new columns: MTD and YTD. The MTD column will be based on the month in which today's date falls, and the YTD column will be cumulative. For example, because today (1/30/2023) is in January, my MTD column would reflect January totals, and my YTD column would include January and February totals, as I am now reporting February actuals. Thank you!
