Formula help

Hi. I am new to power bi and would like to see if anyone is able to help me with figuring out a formula for a situation. Here is a example I just typed up in excel for this. If I wanted to create a formula that adds up how much is due this week (1/10 ordered column 8,000) plus what is remaining from previous weeks is there a formula that can do this? And if the Status column shows CLOSED that means nothing is due and the order is complete so is there a way for the formula to only look at OPEN columns? Thanks!

@Anonymous , Try the preferably using date table and use date from date table in visual

 

Calculate(sum(Table[ordered]) - Sum(Table[received]) , filter(all('Date'), 'Date'[Date] <= max('Date'[Date]) ),

filter(Table, Table[Status] <> "CLOSED") )

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.

Hi, @Anonymous 

 

If you want to see the data as of today, you can use Today().

Measure =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[Ordered] ) - SUM ( 'Table'[Received] ),
    FILTER (
        ALL ( 'Table' ),
        'Table'[Date] <= TODAY ()
            && 'Table'[Status] <> "CLOSED"
    )
)
