SUMMARIZE (
FILTER ( Inv_Fact_Inventory,
Inv_Fact_Inventory[Dashboard]="Current Inventory" && Inv_Fact_Inventory[Inventory Status]="ASSIGNED" && Inv_Fact_Inventory[Inventory Order Type]="TENDERED NOT SHIPPED" ),
Inv_Fact_Inventory[Received Date],
"UnAssignedTenderCount", DISTINCTCOUNT(Inv_Fact_Inventory[CURINV_CARGO_ID])
)
Here is the output

Hi @Anonymous ,
Do you try the way that @az38 suggested? It should work fine. You also could reference the blog to have a try.
https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/computing-running-totals-in-dax/
If you still need help, please share some sample data and your expected output. We will understand more clearly.
@Anonymous , We typically get cumulative like this
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] <=max(Sales[Sales Date])))
To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

FILTER(ALL(Table), Table[Date] <= _curDate )
)
