    ElliotP Sorry about the original post. It was from my phone and had typos :smileywink:

     

    Okay here is the formula for Running Total as a Calculated Column (prorerly formatted)

     

    Running Total COLUMN =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'All Web Site Data (2)'[UniquePageviews] ),
    ALL ( 'All Web Site Data (2)' ),
    'All Web Site Data (2)'[Date] <= EARLIER ( 'All Web Site Data (2)'[Date] )
)

     

    And as you can see it works! :smileyhappy:

     

     

    And here's the MEASURE formula

     

    Running Total MEASURE = 
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'All Web Site Data (2)'[UniquePageviews] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'All Web Site Data (2)' ),
        'All Web Site Data (2)'[Date] <= MAX ( 'All Web Site Data (2)'[Date] )
    )
)

     

    Which also works...

Hi There,

I tried as suggested but only get it working almost.

 

Because there are no actuals from 01/01/2021 onwards the last value will be shown. How can I show the cumulative only if there is an actual value?

 

Actuals Cumulative =
CALCULATE(
SUM('Contract Revenue Forecast'[Actual]),
FILTER(
ALL('Contract Revenue Forecast'),
'Contract Revenue Forecast'[Month] <= EARLIER( 'Contract Revenue Forecast'[Month])
))

 

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Cheers,
