Not quite there yet. I realized the issue, just not sure how to solve in DAX. My excel-based approach above only works if I have a single entry for each date (i.e., a daily deposit amount). However, in my PBI table, I have multiple transactions for each date. As such, your approach gives me much smaller numbers than it should be. I need to find a way to sum by date before adding and counting.
