Hi,
I have a DAX formula that solves a an equation where I have two different columns and I am finding the difference between the previous row of one column and the current row of a different column
(EX: CUSTUM (Current Row) - IMPROVEMENT 1 (Previous Row)).
However, I am getting very stuck because when there would be a 0 value for improvement it would be replaced with the original value of Current Row. I am getting very stuck on how to create a DAX formula that If Improvement 1 value = 0 then the custum row will be the same value as the previous row.
CURRENT TABLES
Current Improvement Custom
10 100
12 90
0 78
5 100
0 95
10 100
*****I am hoping to make
Current Improvement Custom
10 100
12 90
0 78
5 78
0 73
10 73
Thank you very much for the help!! 🙂

Hi @Anonymous ,
Try this formula:
Column =
var start_custom = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Custom]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index]=1))
var cumulative_CI = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Current Improvement]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index]<=EARLIER('Table'[Index])-1))
return
start_custom-cumulative_CI
Best Regards,
Jay
