    Hi poojaghuman 

    You can create a new column :

     

    Sum = SUMX(FILTER('Table',[SUBMIT DATE]<=EARLIER('Table'[SUBMIT DATE])),[ID])

     

     

    Best Regards!

    Hi poojaghuman ,

     

    Assume the table name is 'Ids Received' with columns , ID, Submitted Date

    You can then write a measure

    RunningTotal Received =
    var _selDate = SELECTEDVALUE('Ids Received'[Submitted Date])
    var Result = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Ids Received'), 'Ids Received'[Submitted Date] <= _selDate)
    Return
    Result
     
    Check it out.
     
    Cheers

      Hello 

       

      thanks for your response, this didnt help as it calculated the SUM of the values in the ID column

      What i needed was the total number of IDs created prior each date 

  • Hi,

    Create a Calendar Table with calculated column formulas for Year, Month name and Month number.  Sort the Month name column by the Month number.  Create a relationship (Many to One and Single) from the Date column of the Data Table to the Date column of the Calendar Table.  To your visual, drag Year and Month name from the Calendar Table.  Write these measures:

    ID count = distinctcount(Data[ID])

    ID count YTD = calculate([id count],datesytd(calendar[date],"31/12"))

    ID count since inception =  calculate([id count],datesbetween(calendar[date],minx(all(calendar),calendar[date]),max(calendar[date])))

    Hope this helps.
