I am trying to write a measure that calculates the cumulative total by day of month. Most of the measures I've written so far just give me a straight line across. The last one I wrote shows variation but it is not a running total. Any Ideas?
BHC January 2018 Cumulative = CALCULATE( [BHC January 2018 Cohort], FILTER( ALL('Data Table'), DAY('Data Table'[Date_Applied]) = MAX('Date Table'[DayOfMonth]) ) )
Solved! Go to Solution.
So, have to make a lot of assumptions to answer this. Have no idea what [BHC January 2018 Cohort] is. Assuming it is a measure that does some kind of SUM or something.

But, something like this should do it:
BHC January 2018 Cumulative = VAR currentday = MAX('Date Table'[DayOfMonth] RETURN CALCULATE( [BHC January 2018 Cohort], FILTER( ALL('Data Table'), DAY('Data Table'[Date_Applied]) <= currentday ) )

That did it! Thanks so much for the help.
