Cumulative total based on a date column

Hi everyone,

 

How to calculate a cumulative sum based on the date column? For example, how to calculate the Total in the following table?

 

NameDateamountTotal 
A1.110 
A1.221 
A1.333=1+2
A1.446=1+2+3

Please try this column

 

Column =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( Table1[amount] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Name] ),
        Table1[Date] < EARLIER ( Table1[Date] )
    )
)
