In tha above table, i have gross potential for each controls and each control is mapped against different risks. I just gave an example of two risks here but i have multiple risks in the original data. I want to create a single formula for the burndown columns
For that,
1. I have to add up the sum of gross_risk_potential and actual_risk_reduction for each of the risk separately
2. There should be cumulative reduction of the values from the sum. For eg- Vendor-service transitions risk has the total sum of 60. Control A has gross potential of 10. The gross_potential_burndown should be 50. For control B it would be 50(previous value)-20(present value)=30
Basically i want all the above 2 points i.e summing up gross_risk_potential and actual_risk_reduction for each of the risk separately and doing cumulative subtraction for each row.
The closest formula i got was calculating the sum value for each risk separately which implies creating multiple columns and doing the cumulative subtraction. Is there a way easier than this?
