Hi!
I am creating a cumulative total of value by day. Using this data.
If I use the same DAX measure but show it by 3 day group it doesn't work. I assumed it would work because 3 day group is ordered the same as day. I thought cumulating by day would automatically work over 3 day group, but no.
I have to create a new DAX measure to calculate the running total by 3 day group.
Is it possible to do both of these with just one DAX expression? It would be useful not to have to duplicate all my dax measures when I want to cumulate over a different variable.
Solved! Go to Solution.

You can follow this pattern:
Cumilative = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[value]), FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'[day], 'Table'[3 day group]), 'Table'[day] <= MAX('Table'[day]) && 'Table'[3 day group] <= MAX('Table'[3 day group])) )

Wonderful, it works. And presumably I can add more variables to the measure using the same pattern?
