Inventory cube

Hello, I would like to use in the standard inventory cube the ending amount measure in order to follow in a graph total stock value date per date. It seems that is not possible to use this measure? Does someone could help me please?

    It will be possible but you will need to add a calculated measure to your cube.  Are you using Tabular or Multidimensional?  Both will work but one will use DAX while the other will need an MDX formula.

    In DAX, the general measure pattern is as follows 

     

    Inventory :=
    CALCULATE (SUM ( Inventory[StockCount] ),
    LASTNONBLANK (Calendar[Date],CALCULATE ( SUM ( Inventory[StockCount] ) )))

     

    this is pattern will work regardless of there being a count for every date (it will find the last count).
