    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...

For a calculated column :

 

CumulativeQuantity2 =
VAR CURRENTDATE='All Web Site Data (2) '[Date]
RETURN
CALCULATE(SUM('All Web Site Data (2) '[UniquePagePreviews]);FILTER(all('All Web Site Data (2)');'All Web Site Data (2) '[Date]<= CURRENTDATE))

 

 

For a measure:

 

CumulativeQuantity-M =
CALCULATE(SUM('All Web Site Data (2) '[UniquePagePreviews]);FILTER(all('All Web Site Data (2) ');'All Web Site Data (2) '[Date]<= MAX('All Web Site Data (2) '[Date])))

 

I hope this help you.
