Hi Expert
See sample data image below...
from the above image the running total works up to Feb 25 - here is the challenge where the Actual data point for Mar 25 is blank i want to add back the forecast Value - So Mar 25 should be 147,183 + 8,948
Measure 1. (new forecast is the forecast column in the image)
New Forecasts = IF(ISBLANK([Total Actuals]),[Total Selected Forecasts],[Total Actuals])
Measure 2.
New Forecasts running total in Date =
CALCULATE(
[New Forecasts],
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED('Date'[Date]),
'Date'[Date] <= MAX('Date'[Date])
)
)
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi,@WhaleWatcher222 .I am glad to help you.
If you are trying to show the modified cumulative result in table visual, you can refer to my test below
Assuming that the values in the screenshot you provided are real column data (not measures)
My test data:
NewForecastsunningtotal =
VAR _date =
MAX ( 'TestTable'[Period] )
VAR _NewForecastsunningtotal =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'TestTable'[Actuals] ),
FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'TestTable' ), 'TestTable'[Period] <= _date )
)
RETURN
_NewForecastsunningtotal
Result =
VAR _actuals = MAX('TestTable'[Actuals])
VAR _forecasts =MAX('TestTable'[Forecasts])
RETURN
IF(ISBLANK(_actuals),[NewForecastsunningtotal]+_forecasts,[NewForecastsunningtotal])
I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
Best Regards,
Carson Jian,
