Cumulative total on measure (which calculates average)

Hi guys,

I am having issues with calculating cumulative (running) total on measure.

 

This complex measure is calculating 3-months moving average for each day (example: on 1st of June, I have average of amounts from 1st of May, 1st of April and 1st of March)

 

I have tried 3 different ways but none of them are working:

1) Firstly, I used standard formula for cumulative total - this returns error

CAlCULATE(
SUM( [3-months average] ),
FILTER( ALLSELECTED( Date Table[Date]),
Date Table[Date] <= MAX(Date Table[Date])
))

 

2) Secondly, I recreate formula as per below:

CALCULATE(
SUMX(
FILTER( ALLSELECTED(Date Table[Date]),
Date Table[Date] <= MAX(Date Table[Date])
),
[3-month average]),
ALL(Date Table[Date])
)

 

3, Finally, I used Quick measure to create running total which creates following function:

CALCULATE(
[3-month average],
FILTER( ALLSELECTED (Date Table[Date]),
ISONORAFTER(Date Table[Date], MAX(Date Table[Date]), DESC)
))

 

Unfortunately, none of these functions are summing the average amounts.

 

Any ideas how to calculate it correctly?

 

Thank you
IvanS

Hi, @IvanS 

 

Can you provide sample data for testing? Sensitive information can be removed in advance. What kind of expected results do you expect? You can also show it with pictures or Excel. I look forward to your response.
