Help with Running Totals

I'm trying to get some running totals, The first column is fine, that's just the total amount each month. The second column seems to be working except it's not producting the total (is that normal?)....

    PBrainNWH , You are using totalYTD, which for year till date not running total. Also even if removed a month it will still build from the start of year

     

    You can use running total with allselected to honor filters

     

    Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(all('Date'),'Date'[date] <=max('Date'[date])))

    Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(allselected(date),date[date] <=max(date[Date])))

    Cumm Based on Date = CALCULATE([Net], Window(1,ABS,0,REL, ALL('date'[date]),ORDERBY('Date'[date],ASC)))

    Cumm Based on Date = CALCULATE([Net], Window(1,ABS,0,REL, ALLSELECTED('date'[date]),ORDERBY('Date'[date],ASC)))

     

     

    Windows function is also used YTD, just use partition by year

I got the filter to work with this:

RTAct FAN = CALCULATE(SUM('Combined VE PL Pared (2)'[Actual Amount]),filter(allselected('Calendar'[Date]),'Calendar'[Date] <=max('Calendar'[Date])),'Combined VE PL Pared (2)'[Department Code]="30-FAN")
