Running total not giving correct answer
hello Devon-Yeager
if i am not misunderstood the discussion, the problem is how to calculate running sum from a measure.
next the [Available Hours] is a form of measure from another calculation.
please check if this accomodate your expected result (please ignore the index as it works only as sorting in table visual).
i think the [5. Running Sum] above should be matched to your correct hours.
create a new measure for calculating Running Sum
5. Running Sum =
SUMX(
FILTER(
ALL('Table'),
'Table'[Date]<=MAX('Table'[Date])
),
[Available Hours]
)i made the [Available Hours] above as a measure because your original data has [Available Hours] as measure.i assumed you have expected result for calculations before [Available Hours].Hope this will help.Thank you.
Thank you for the additional measure to try. It's still giving me the same answer.
I really think the issue starts at the What If Employee Count measure ( = average('3 - D&A Employees by month V2'[EmployeeCount]) + SELECTEDVALUE('9 - What If Add FTE'[Additional FTE])).
I think the "average" in the measure is causing unexpected results in the downstream measures that use it.
I think I need to add something to the What If Employee Count measure but I'm not sure what. If you have any advice on that, I'd surely appreciate it.
Thanks!
Super UserYou are welcome. Without data to work with and the expected result, i cannot help.
