Hi Everyone,
I am trying to do a running sum by group in PowerBi DeskTop. Thank you.
Here is what my data looks like, I would like a running sum of the times in a new column.
Thank you all.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @PeterChu
If you want to do it as a calculated column then please try this :
Running Total =
CALCULATE(
SUM(Table1[Times]),
FILTER(
'Table1',
'Table1'[MemberId]=EARLIER('Table1'[MemberId])
&& 'Table1'[Date] <= EARLIER('Table1'[Date])
)
)
thanks this formula worked. I saw a bunch of other threads for running total but this was the only one that got the desired result.....
