Hi,
I'm trying to compute the backlog of tickets commulatively. Logic should be:
"backlog = prev month backlog + created tickets this month - closed tickets this month"
| Work Item Id | State | Closed Date | Created Date | TicketKind | CreatedDate Datepart | ProjectName Calc | ProjectName-Ticket | ClosedDate |

However, in the above example, March 2022 is null instead of having 2 from the feb 2022 backlog. I think I am just missing something to make it work. I'm not sure how.
This is the code I am using atm.
Solved! Go to Solution.
