Cumulative Sum problem
- 6 years ago
Let us take a look at what happens when you look at Hoja[Date]=1, with special attention to this part:
Hoja[Date] <= Earlier(Hoja[Date])
When you look at a row where [Date]=1, this code says find all rows where [Date] is smaller or equal to 1. Hence, from you example, it sums 5, 32 and 25 = 62.
So how to fix this? You are relying on the sorted order of your table. Since you are looking at UniquePageViews, perhaps you have a uniquePageID available? If you have, you could change your code to this:Running Total Sume = CALCULATE ( SUM ( Hoja3[UniquePageViews] ); FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( Hoja3 ); Hoja3[date] <= EARLIER ( Hoja3[Date] ) && Hoja3[UniquePageID] = EARLIER ( [UniquePageID] ) ) )I have rewritten you code using the ALLSELECTED-function, although ALLSELECTED is a particular difficult function to master. I can't see it has any uses for you here, and unless you have found that it has a purpose in your code, I would recomend that you change it to use the ALL-function.
Now, if don't have a something like a uniquePageID available, we need to rely on the order of Date in the input, and generate a uniqe ID on our own. There are a few steps to this, so instead of describing them, I have created a demo reportGo to Power Query/Edit queries to see how this is done.
