Math on a table formula

I have a table that keeps track of items that come in out with a bit field, so I do not have negative number

ID  Product InOut qty Date

1  Widget2 True  3     8/1/17

2  Widget2 False 2   8/2/17

3  Widget3 True  10     8/1/17

4  Widget3 False 8   8/2/17

 

 

The total of widget2 = 1

total of widget3 = 2

 

I am having trouble calculating this in PowerBI

    Hi lancepr 

    I have created a new column named New Qty:

    New Qty = IF(T7[InOut] = TRUE(),T7[Qty], -T7[Qty])

    Then another column to SUM:

    Totals =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( T7[New Qty] ),
        FILTER ( T7, T7[Prod] = EARLIER ( T7[Prod] ) )
    )

     

    Good Luck!

    In the table view, select Product and select 'don't summerise option' then select again product and take count of this.

     

    I hope this will resolve your issue.

     

    If not post the correct table screenshot for better understanding.
