Cumulative Totals not dynamic

[arcanri]

Hello,

Having difficulty making my cumulative total dynamic.  In other words, my filters which are based on various categories in my data model are not working.  These filters are working fine for my regular (not cumulative) totals.  

Below is the syntax:

Cumulative Volumes =

Calculate([Actual Volume],

FILTER(

    ALLSELECTED('Flux Capacitor'),

    'Flux Capacitor'[Date] <= MAX('Flux Capacitor'[Date]

)

)

)

How can I ammend this syntax to get the cumulative totals to respond to my filters.

Thank you!

HI @arcanri 

Just out of curiosity, what is the definition for [Actual Volume]?

[arcanri]

Actual as opposed to estimated (or planned) numbers.

[gmsamborn]

I meant the DAX for [Actual Volume].

Ideally, it would be a simple sum. 

[arcanri]

A simple sum: Calculate(sum(Volume_net)), ...

Hi,

I am not sure how your semantic model looks like, but please try something like below whether it works.

Cumulative Volumes =
CALCULATE (
    [Actual Volume],
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'Flux Capacitor'[Date] ),
        'Flux Capacitor'[Date]
            <= MAX ( 'Flux Capacitor'[Date] )
    )
)
