Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Check the formula below.

Column = 
var pre_date = CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Date]),FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[ID]),'Table'[Date]<EARLIER('Table'[Date])))
return
CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),FILTER('Table','Table'[ID]=EARLIER('Table'[ID])&&'Table'[Date]=pre_date))

Result would be shown as below.

@Anonymous , Try a new column

New column =
var _min = maxx(filter(Table, [ID] = earlier([ID]) && [Date] <earlier([Date])),[Date])
return
maxx(filter(Table, [ID] = earlier([ID]) && [Date] =_min),[Result])
