What I would like is to be able to replicate the calculation of the image of the "Inventory" column, that is, for the first day I have information, I leave the "Stock" column, but for the following days I calculate the inventory as the sum of the inventory of the previous day plus the entries of the previous day minus the outputs of the previous day (that also considering that in the table I have several materials and plants).

Thank you very much for the answer

    I was finally able to figure it out. It may not be the best way, but it does work. In case anyone needs something similar, I leave the steps and share the sample file.

    Steps to follow (I hope I don't forget any important ones):
    1. Create a Calendar table, taking the dates of the table you want to treat
    2. To the calendar table, add two new columns:

    Rank = RANK. EQ([Date],Calendar[Date],ASC)

    Add_INV =
    WHERE _Current = [Date]
    WHERE _Next = LOOKUPVALUE(Calendar[Date],Calendar[Rank],[Rank]-1)
    RETURN _Next - _Current

    3. In the table where we have the data, we will create new columns for the intermediate inventories, being the last column created the one that will have the 'real' inventory.

    The formula for these inventories is:

    Inv_i =
    WHERE _rankingFecha = RELATED(Calendar[Rank])
    WHERE _Days = RELATED(Calendar[Add_INV])
    WHERE _Storing = CALCULATE(sum(DATA[Inv_i-1]), ALLEXCEPT(DATA,DATA[Plant], DATA[Material]), DATEADD(Calendar[Date],_Days,DAY))
    WHERE _InputAnt = CALCULATE(sum(DATA[Input]), ALLEXCEPT(DATA,DATA[Plant], DATA[Material]), DATEADD(Calendar[Date],_Days,DAY))
    WHERE _OutputAnt = CALCULATE(sum(DATA[Output]), ALLEXCEPT(DATA,DATA[Plant], DATA[Material]), DATEADD(Calendar[Date],_Days,DAY))

    RETURN SWITCH(TRUE(),
    _rankingFecha < i, [Inv_i-1],
    _rankingFecha = i, _Storing + _InputAnt - _OutputAnt,
    _rankingFecha > i, BLANK()
    )
    The above was a kind of pseudocode, where you have to replace the "i", by the column in question, for example for the second inventory we would have the formula:
    Inv2 =
    WHERE _rankingFecha = RELATED(Calendar[Rank])
    WHERE _Days = RELATED(Calendar[Add_INV])
    WHERE _Storing = CALCULATE(sum(DATA[Inv1]), ALLEXCEPT(DATA,DATA[Plant], DATA[Material]), DATEADD(Calendar[Date],_Days,DAY))
    WHERE _InputAnt = CALCULATE(sum(DATA[Input]), ALLEXCEPT(DATA,DATA[Plant], DATA[Material]), DATEADD(Calendar[Date],_Days,DAY))
    WHERE _OutputAnt = CALCULATE(sum(DATA[Output]), ALLEXCEPT(DATA,DATA[Plant], DATA[Material]), DATEADD(Calendar[Date],_Days,DAY))

    RETURN SWITCH(TRUE(),
    _rankingFecha < 2, [Inv1],
    _rankingFecha = 2, _Storing + _InputAnt - _OutputAnt,
    _rankingFecha > 2, BLANK()
    )
    Repeating this for all possible date values (in my case 5), inventory 5 will have the quantity I am looking for.
    I leave the links in case someone helps you take the idea:
