    Hi AlbLS 

    I've simplified this for you, hope its what you need.

    # Entries = COUNTROWS( Entries ) 
    # Departures = COUNTROWS( Departures )
    # Difference = [# Entries] - [# Departures]
    # Difference Running Total = 
IF( 
    NOT ISEMPTY( Departures ) || NOT ISEMPTY( Entries ),
    CALCULATE(
        [# Difference],
        FILTER(
            ALL( 'Date' ),
            'Date'[Date] <= MAX( 'Date'[Date] )
        )
    )
)
    Best Regards,
    Mariusz

    Hi Ashish,

    Thank you very much for your answer and for your power bi file.

    Unfortunately it does not solve my problem either, I already had the same result as you, but when the year changes, running totoal starts from scratch, and this is a mistake.

    What I need is a graph like this:

    when I'm going to filter for the year 2017, i will get this:

    and filter for the year 2018, this:

    I hope we can find the solution, for the moment I can not do it.

     

    Thank you very much again.

      Hi,

      Change the New Joinees YTD measure to:

      Net joinees YTD = CALCULATE([Net joinees],DATESBETWEEN('Date'[Date],MINX(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Date]),MAX('Date'[Date])))

      Hope this helps.

        Thank you Ashish.

        Your solution also works. It is different from that of Mariuzs, but it also works.

        This could help other users!

        Thank you so much!
