Hello,
Please, I need urgent help getting a measure that will calculate cummulative percentage for a large dataset (> 50,000 rows). The ones I have found so far end up crashing and not producing the expected result. The result I need is in Excel Cummulative % col. The highlighted rows shows the problem I am having with the DAX measures when the is duplicate lines in the data.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Could you post the measures you are trying to use that crash......50,000 rows should not be "large" for DAX, millions of rows maybe, but not 50,000.
Help when you know. Ask when you don't!
To Calculate the DAX Cummulative Total I used this command: DAX Cummulative Total = CALCULATE([SumLines],FILTER(ALL(Query12_Q1),Query12_Q1[LINES] >= MAX(Query12_Q1[LINES]))) and SumLines = CALCULATE(SUM(Query12_Q1[LINES]))
These by the way are not giving me the results I need as i mentioned in my original post.
