Calulating help

Hello !

How do you calculate minus in power bi, i.e. I have a baseline = 208 and then I have another field with values ​​to be accumulated downwards, see my example:

 

Forecast is calculated from another variable called "Effekt CO2 (sustainability)"

 

ÅRPrognos
  
2022208
2023208
2024208
2025187,18
2026187,18
2027182,58
2028182,58
2029176,28
2030176,28

    Hi Anonymous for solution as below, please create Date  / Calendar Table in Power BI and connect / create relationship with your Year column. 

    After that please create following measures 83), adopt Sheet1 with your table name

    To get visuals as below, please use Year colum from created Date / Calendar table

    Sum of Base = SUM(Sheet1[Baseline])
    Sum of Effekt CO2 = sum(Sheet1[Effekt CO2])
     
    Running total =
    VAR __max_date = MAX ( 'Date'[Date] )
    VAR __base_line=[Sum of Base]
    VAR __running_total=
        CALCULATE (
            [Sum of Effekt CO2],          
            'Date'[Date] <= __max_date,  
            ALL ( 'Date' )              
        )
    VAR __Result=__running_total+__base_line
    RETURN __Result

    Did I answer your question? Kudos appreciated / accept solution!
