    Hi

     

    Please try this

    Cashflow =
    VAR minweek =
    MIN ( RT[Week] )
    VAR Firstcash =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( RT[Cash Balance] ), RT[Week] = minweek, ALL ( rt ) )
    VAR Activweek = RT[Week]
    VAR RTotal =
    CALCULATE (
    SUM ( RT[Net Cashflow] ),
    RT[Week] > minweek
    && RT[Week] <= Activweek,
    ALL ( RT )
    )
    VAR result =
    IF ( Activweek = minweek, Firstcash, RTotal + Firstcash )
    RETURN
    result

      Hey,

      Thanks for the response! This did not generate the desired outcome. i dont have every column in the same table as you have here. 

      i also get an error on the syntax at "Activweek" not sure why, guess it needs an expression.

        Sorry I do not realize that you got informations in different tables

         

        For Activweek, as you put it on a matrix use the selectedvalue(Date[Week])
