Refreshing data with new totals

I have a dashboard with fortnight refreshing.  The data is an XS Annual Leave spreadsheet so a lot of rows will be duplicated with and increase in the $ value.  How do I update the totals to reflect the new $$'s but keeping the old data for comparison?

But when I refresh for the next FN - it doubles the total due to duplicates.  If I delete the rows that are duplicated, it deletes the previous FN record.  
I'm so confused.

hi @CharnanK ,

 

try to introduce a datestamp column with the value of every fresh date. 

@FreemanZ can you give me an example? Not used a DateStamp column before

hi @CharnanK ,

 

1) Ask your datasource to add that column, or

2) Save a offline copy on each data refresh, add a date column manually, and merge all offline copies in Power Query.
