Error showed not enough memory by using Earlier

Hello all,

I encounter the error by showing not enough memory when using earlier funciton.

My purpose is to get accumulated qty based on same date and same sku. The example below:

Date_CreatedMaterialQuantityIndexAccumulated_Qty
25-OctA1001100
25-OctA2002300
25-OctA3003600
25-OctB4004400
25-OctB5005900
25-OctB60061500

 

The DAX I used:

Accumulated_Qty =

VAR SumQuantity =
    CALCULATE(
        SUM(Basic_1[Quantity]),
        FILTER(
            Basic_1,
            Basic_1[Index]<= EARLIER(Basic_1[Index]) &&
            Basic_1[Material] = EARLIER(Basic_1[Material]) &&
            Basic_1[Date created] = EARLIER(Basic_1[Date created])
        )
    )
RETURN
    IF(ISBLANK(SumQuantity), 0, SumQuantity)

 

I also tried to use var but still failed:

Qty_Accum =
VAR CurrentIndex = Basic_1[Index]
VAR CurrentMaterial = Basic_1[Material]
VAR CurrentDate = Basic_1[Date created]

RETURN
SUMX(
FILTER(
Basic_1,
Basic_1[Index] <= CurrentIndex &&
Basic_1[Material] = CurrentMaterial &&
Basic_1[Date created] = CurrentDate
),
Basic_1[Quantity]
)

 

Is there any other way to improve that? Thanks for help!

Hi @nbufff 

 

Can try the window function, It may have better performance.

Accumulated_Qty = 
SUMX(
    WINDOW(1,ABS,0,REL,ORDERBY('Basic_1'[Index],ASC,'Basic_1'[Quantity]),PARTITIONBY(Basic_1[Date_Created],'Basic_1'[Material])),
    'Basic_1'[Quantity]
)
