Running Totals - no dates

hi all

 

how can i create a running total for this table?

 

the values need to reset at period 1 for each financial year, so they are cumulative from period 1 2021/22 to period 13 2021/22 and then start again at period 1 2022/23.

 

 

thanks 

Dan

    Hi,

     

    I suggest to greate a "Date stamp" for each period which rappresent when the period end or start. Then you connect that date to your "Date Dim Table" (If you don't have one I will suggest you to create one as per best practice).

     

    Then you can use the following time intelligence measure:

    Measure =
     CALCULATE(
       Incidents[Incident_count],
      DATESYTD(Incidents[Period Ending],"13/01") (the 13/01 is just an example and it should be the last date of the fiscal year in the formai dd/mm)
        )
     
    Please find below my example:
