Calculating Opening / Closing Balance
Hi team,
I'm trying to use a formule like that:
Closing Balance = ( Opening Balance + field1 + field2 )
However the "Opening Balance" is the previous value of "Closing Balance", when I try to get the previous value for closing balance, it is showing a error: "a circular occurrence was detected"..
Do you now how I can fix it?

eduardomarchesi , If this is recursive calculation like excel, that is not possible.
If it can be cumulative
Opening = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Amount]),filter(all('Date'),'Date'[date] <Min ('Date'[date])))
Closing = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Amount]),filter(all('Date'),'Date'[date] <= Max('Date'[date])))
Or you can consider
openingbalancemonth, openingbalancequarter, openingbalanceyear: https://youtu.be/6lzYOXI5wfo

Hi amitchandak,
Thank you very much for your help!!
I've tried your suggestions but with no success.
As you can see below, I have got the previous values of "Closing Balance" and associated with "Opening Balance", so, this Opening Balance I need incluide in the formule to "Closing Balance" as you can check in the screen from excel example below.
PowerBI result:

Is it possible I send you my example and my data to take look and understand better the sctructure?
