Problem with my formula

Guys, i hope you can help me out here.

 

I use this formula to calculate the SUM of a colum which contains values and it works but it's in the Date table

 

Running Total number of sales =
CALCULATE (
SUM('Date'[salesdate]),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Date' ),
'Date'[Date] <= MAX( 'Date'[Date])
))

 

However i need it to work not just with numbers but with a countrows and ive already tried it but it doesn't seem to work in another Table.

Basically i have a colum that has a date in it if something was sold and now i need a running total measure based on a relationship between SALES and DATE but i think my formula is wrong

 

Running Total number of sales =
FILTER(
ALLNOBLANKROW('Sales'[salesdate]),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Date' ),
'Date'[Date] <= MAX( 'Date'[Date])
))

    Hi RonaldvdH 

    I build a sample to show you how to get running total from another table.

    Sales:

    Date:

    Date =
ADDCOLUMNS (
    CALENDARAUTO (),
    "Year", YEAR ( [Date] ),
    "Month", MONTH ( [Date] ),
    "MonthName", FORMAT ( [Date], "MMMM" )
)

    Relationship: Date[Date] —— Sales[SalesDate] 

    Measure:

    Measure = 
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(Sales),
FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]<=MAX('Date'[Date])),
FILTER(ALL(Sales),Sales[SalesDate] <>BLANK())
)+0

    Blank in SalesDate column will cause blank in columns in Date table in visual, due to relationship. Remove blank in Date column in Filter Field. Result is as below.
