DAX for Cumulative subtraction

20600

30600
10600
80600
20600
40

600

 

Expected output is

 

Output
590
570
530
500
490
410
390
350

 

Please suggest a DAX formula to perform this action.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @aktripathi2506

 

1. From your table display choose Edit Query

2. When the Query Editor Opens up choose AddColumn tab and Index Column from 0

3. Create RunTot columns as

    RunTot = CALCULATE(sum(Table1[Value]), FIlter(Table1,Table1[Index]<=EARLIER(Table1[Index])))

    ( replace Table1 by the name of your table )

4. Create another column Final 

    Final = [Total]-[RunTot]

5. Plot the values in a Table Chart and you will get the desired output.
