Cumulative sum in column until it finds the certain value

Hi,

I need to write this to the Explicit measure in the Power Pivot:

Start with cumulative sum in column (One by one; It can be ascending or descending.), when it hits the first 0 in the cell, stop the calculation and show the sum from 1 row to the row where is the 0 placed.

Can anybody help with the measure?

I have only 0 or 1 in the Column. When it is needed I can replace 0 for „Null“ or some text.

Thank you,

Jan

Ps: I additionally added the picture and sample data.

Hi, @Kopec 

According to your description and sample pictures, I can clearly understand your requirement, I think you can try to create a calculated column like this to achieve your requirement:

Result =

CALCULATE(SUM('Tabulka1'[Data]),FILTER(ALL(Tabulka1),[Date]>=EARLIER(Tabulka1[Date])&&[Name]=EARLIER(Tabulka1[Name])))

 

And you can get what you want, like this:

Thank you very much!

@Kopec Do you have any column that defines "before" like an Index column, etc.

 

Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?
Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

Also, please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
