    Hi Bokchoy 

     

    Use this to create a new column

    Col Cost = CALCULATE(SUM([Cost]), FILTER('Table', 'Table'[Date] = EARLIER('Table'[Date])  && 'Table'[user_id] = EARLIER('Table'[user_id]) && 'Table'[Type] = EARLIER('Table'[Type])))

     

    Regards

Hi Bokchoy 

 

Download example PBIX file

 

Use this measure

 

MCost = CALCULATE(SUMX('Table', [Cost]), FILTER(ALL('Table'), 'Table'[Date] = MAX('Table'[Date]) && 'Table'[user_id] = MAX('Table'[user_id]) && 'Table'[Type] = MAX('Table'[Type])))

 

regards

Hi Philip, 
This works perfect as a measure, but it doesnt seem to work as a custom column. 
is there a way to achieve the same result while creating a new column?
