Hi  All,   I need a cumulative sum of size for each month from the start July 2016 to August 2018. How do I achieve this using DAX ?

    Kolumam,

    Create a calendar table in Power BI Desktop following the guide in this blog, create relationship between the date field of Date table and COD field of Project table. Then change your DAX to the following, drag date field of Date table and the measure to your chart.

    Running Totals =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( Project[Operating Size] ),
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'Date' ), 'Date'[Date] <= MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ) )
)


    Regards,
    Lydia

Can you post sample data? (copy directly from excel to here). I can test it on my system.

    Try this formula:

    Running Totals =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table1'[Size(MWP)] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table1', 'Table'[COD] ),
            'Table1'[COD] <= MAX ( 'Table1'[COD] )
        )
    )

      Sorry, formula doesn't correct. Try this formula:

      Running Totals =
      CALCULATE (
          SUM ( 'Table1'[Size(MWP)] ),
          FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table1' ), 'Table1'[COD] <= MAX ( 'Table1'[COD] ) )
      )

        Another way could be to use INONORAFTER

         

        Measure =
VAR mymax =
    MAX ( Table1[COD] )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table1[Size(MWP)] ),
        ISONORAFTER ( Table1[COD], mymax, DESC )
    )
