Need Cumulative Measure

I am trying to create a new measure that will calculate a cumulative total in either a table or matrix as well as give correct total in a card.  In the attached pbix file the cumulative total for this small dataset should be 3. My verification counter measure has variables.  I understand that the below measure works under normal circumstances but its not calculating accurately.  Any help is appreciated!

 

Cumulative =
CALCULATE([Verification counter],
     FILTER(ALL('Table1'[Day of Week ]),
        'Table1'[Day of Week ] <= MAX('Table1'[Day of Week ])
     )
)

    Give this a try:

    Cumulative = var endDate = MAX('Table1'[Day of Week ])
    RETURN
    CALCULATE(
    	[Verification counter],
    	ALL('Table1'[Day of Week ]),
    	'Table1'[Day of Week ] <= endDate
    )

    Hi, cmcgo3 

    Thanks for Anonymous  reply. You can refer to the following dax to solve the problem.

    Cumulative = 
    VAR _table =
        SUMMARIZE (
            'Table1',
            'Table1'[Day of Week ],
            "Verification counter", [Verification counter]
        )
    RETURN
        SUMX ( _table, [Verification counter] )
    
    
    CumulativeVerificationCounter = 
    CALCULATE (
        [Cumulative],
        FILTER ( ALL ( Table1 ), Table1[Day of Week ] <= MAX ( Table1[Day of Week ] ) )
    )
