I have the following table. I need a calculated column that returns the count of consecutive LotNumber that has an increasing Amount. I have browsed similar solution but I cant get one to work on my table without crashing the pbix file
| Item | LotNumber | Amount | IncreasingConsecutiveCount |
| Table | 1 | 10 | 1 |
| Table | 3 | 20 | 2 |
| Table | 5 | 30 | 3 |
| Table | 9 | 20 | 1 |
| Table | 11 | 10 | 1 |
| Table | 13.6 | 20 | 2 |
| Table | 16.2 | 90 | 3 |
| Table | 18.8 | 10 | 1 |
| Table | 21.4 | 11 | 2 |
| Table | 24 | 12 | 3 |
| Table | 25 | 13 | 4 |
| Table | 26 | 14 | 5 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
You can try the following modified calculated columns
Rank =
RANKX (
FILTER ( 'Table', [Item] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Item] ) ),
[LotNumber],
,
ASC
)
Flag =
VAR a =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table'[Amount] ),
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Item] ),
'Table'[Rank]
= EARLIER ( 'Table'[Rank] ) - 1
)
RETURN
IF ( [Amount] > a, 1, 0 )
ConsecutiveCount =
VAR a =
MAXX (
FILTER (
'Table',
[Flag] = 0
&& [Item] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Item] )
&& [Rank] <= EARLIER ( 'Table'[Rank] )
),
[Rank]
)
RETURN
SWITCH ( TRUE (), a = BLANK (), [Rank], [Rank] = a, 1, [Rank] - a + 1 )
Output

Thank you for that. Would you know why when you add another column everything turns to 1?
Hi,
Thanks for the solution @ThxAlot provided, it is excellent, and i want to offer some more information for user to refer to.
hello @PowerBITestingG , based on your descriotion, you can create the following calcualted columns.
Rank = RANKX('Table',[LotNumber],,ASC)Flag =
VAR a =
LOOKUPVALUE ( 'Table'[Amount], [Rank], [Rank] - 1 )
RETURN
IF ( [Amount] > a, 1, 0 )
ConsecutiveCount =
VAR a =
MAXX (
FILTER ( 'Table', [Flag] = 0 && [Rank] <= EARLIER ( 'Table'[Rank] ) ),
[Rank]
)
RETURN
SWITCH ( TRUE (), a = BLANK (), [Rank], [Rank] = a, 1, [Rank] - a + 1 )
Output
Best Regards!

The issue now is that if you use the entire dummy data I shared (with Item Chair), the code stops working
