For Total issue for the last twelve months just add a restriction on 0ISSVS_VAL KF based on time characteristic lets say Calender month or fiscal period which ever you are using , then right click on it and select restrict and choose values ranges from the dropdown, now have BETWEEN operator and select the Current Calender Month Variable from both the dropdowns, once the selected variable show up on the right side of window after selection right click on it and select offset and set -12 and -1 for both. This will calculate total issues in the last 12 months.
Now for the 0VALSTCKVAL, this being a non-cummulatibe KF it always picks up the last value so you need to handle with based on the exceptional aggregation instead of values ranges as done above.Edit this KF and select Aggregation option there choose "Average of all values" give the refernce characterictic as Calender Month.
Have a global filter on report as a restriction on calender month, by defining values ranges exactly as i deinfined above.
