Hi, @Anonymous 

 

Based on your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario.

Table:

b1.png

 

Calendar(a calculated table):

 

Calendar = CALENDAR(DATE(2020,1,1),DATE(2020,3,31))

 

 

You may create a calculated column as below.

 

WeekNum = WEEKNUM('Calendar'[Date])

 

 

There is a one-to-one relationship between two tables.

 

Then you can create a measure as below.

 

Count Running total = 
var _weeknum = SELECTEDVALUE('Calendar'[WeekNum])
var _date = SELECTEDVALUE('Calendar'[Date])
return
IF(
    ISINSCOPE('Calendar'[Date]),
    CALCULATE(
        COUNT('Table'[Date]),
        FILTER(
            ALLSELECTED('Calendar'),
            'Calendar'[Date]<=_date
        )
    ),
    CALCULATE(
        COUNT('Table'[Date]),
        FILTER(
            ALLSELECTED('Calendar'),
            'Calendar'[WeekNum]<=_weeknum
        )
    )
)

@Anonymous ,

Try with a date calendar. like

Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(date,date[date] <=maxx(date,date[date])))

Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(date,date[date] <=maxx(date,max(dateadd(date[date]),-1,year))))

Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(date,date[date] <=max(Sales[Sales Date])))
