I would do this in Power Query.
Use the Table.ReplaceValue function to set any non-Friday date total to null and then use the Table.FillDown function to fill in the nulls with the previous Friday value. Of course this assumes the table is sorted.
Here is a sample code you can play with.let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Zc9BCsMwDETRu2gdiDSOJfksJve/RounjVu0MzyE/8wpJofYaX5C4e83hqrcxxQQ4oHMvqARckPw4iKMB8IJfQF0X3SCE+znj1wQBGxovEhC+0LTT+4gXCXXlNJLr3E7vAQbxyNKsXE9siQb52P8N98v", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [NO = _t, Date = _t, Total = _t]), intial_type_set = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"NO", Int64.Type}, {"Date", type date}}), replace_non_fridays = Table.ReplaceValue(intial_type_set,each [Total],each if Date.DayOfWeekName([Date]) = "Friday" then [Total] else null,Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Total"}), fill_down = Table.FillDown(replace_non_fridays,{"Total"}), set_total_type = Table.TransformColumnTypes(fill_down,{{"Total", Int64.Type}}) in set_total_type - 7 months ago
Please try the formula below:
Friday Total = VAR _CurrentDate = MAX ( DimDate[Date] ) VAR _LastFriday = CALCULATE ( MAX ( DimDate[Date] ), FILTER ( ALL ( DimDate ), DimDate[Date] <= _CurrentDate && WEEKDAY ( DimDate[Date], 2 ) = 5 ) ) RETURN CALCULATE ( SUM ( Fact[Total] ), DimDate[Date] = _LastFriday ) - 7 months ago
you can try this to create a column
Column =var _date=maxx(FILTER('Table','Table'[date]<=EARLIER('Table'[date])&&weekday('Table'[date],1)=6),'Table'[date])return maxx(FILTER('Table','Table'[date]=_date),'Table'[Total])pls see the attachment below
