Hi,
I am trying to calculate a cumulative/running total using:
Running Invoiced Amounts =
VAR CurrentDate = MAX(AR_Balances[GL Date])
RETURN
CALCULATE(
SUMX(AR_Balances, AR_Balances[Invoice Amount]),
FILTER(
ALL(AR_Balances),
AR_Balances[GL Date] <= CurrentDate
)
)
| GL Date* | Invoice Amount | Cumulative Total |
| 1-Jan-22 | 100 | 1,050 |
| 15-Jan-22 | 200 | 1,250 |
| ... | ... | ... |
| 31-Dec-22 | 200 | 1,450 |
| 1-Jan-23 | 250 | 1,700 |
| ... | ... | ... |
| 27-May-23 | 300 | 2,200 |
| Total | 1,050 | 3,050 |
*GL Date = Invoice Date
Problems I am unable to fix::
1. Starting of cumulative total (1,050) is the sum of all invoices (total). Why and how to prevent so?
2. Cumulative total seemingly works (if starting 1,050 is ignored), but I expect it to reset as soon as the year changes on 31-Dec. How to achieve this?
Thanks.
Can you share your PBI?
Nopes. Apologies.
Update:
I have managed to fix the first issue where cumulative total started with the sum of all invoices (i.e. 1,050) using below DAX. Please help me with the second problem. Thanks:
Solution to # 1:
Running Invoiced Amounts =
VAR CurrentDate = MAX(AR_Balances[GL Date])
RETURN
CALCULATE(
SUMX(AR_Balances, AR_Balances[Invoice Amount]),
AR_Balances[GL Date] <= CurrentDate
)
