Hello,
I have the data below
I want to have the cumulative data only for the item that contain cat1.
I've used the formula below using containstring
Could you please help me to solve this problem to get the good cumulative amounts after filtering by items only containing cat1.
Also is it possible to put the Measure cat_1_only_cumulative and then Measure cat_2_cumulative in a table as row with the dates like the example below
| Row Label | 01/01/2025 | 02/01/2025 | 03/01/2025 | 04/01/2025 | 05/01/2025 | 06/01/2025 | TOTAL |
| cat_1_only_cumulative | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 6 |
| cat_2_cumulative | 1 | 1 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @yanisyes ,
Please create measures like:
cat_1_only_cumulative =
CALCULATE (
COUNT ( Table1[Row Label] ),
Table1[Attribute] <= MAX ( Table1[Attribute] ),
CONTAINSSTRING(Table1[Row Label],"cat1")
)cat_2_only_cumulative =
CALCULATE (
COUNT ( Table1[Row Label] ),
Table1[Attribute] <= MAX ( Table1[Attribute] ),
CONTAINSSTRING(Table1[Row Label],"cat2")
)

Hi,
Why are you trying to pass the Cat1 condition in the CALCULATE() function? Why not give that condition in the FILTER() pane?
