Running total with hierarchy (again)

Hello everybody,

 

yes, another running total question. I think, I miss something in my formula or just think the wrong way.

 

My tables look like this:

 

Table 1:

 

Order ID

Value

Client

Signed Date (Date)

Country

Segment

 

Table 2:

 

Country

Segment

Planned Value

Date (Month)

 

Table 3 (Time Dimension):

 

Date

Month

Quarter

Year

 

What I want to do:

 

I want to calculate my running totals for both of my tables per month and then display them in one diagram (to see, if I hit or miss my planned value for this month.

Important/Problem: At the same time I want to have the "Segment" as the legend. So that I can see which segments take the biggest part of my values.

 

--> Whenever I do this, it just adds my segment values to the previous "totals".

 

E.g.

January total:

500 - Segment A

400 - Segment B

100 - Segment C

 

1000 - Total

 

Then it shows me the Value "2000" for January.

 

My current Formula

 

Running Total =

CALCULATE (

    SUM ( 'Table 1 (signed date) 2018'[Value] );

    ALL ( 'Table 1 (signed date) 2018');

   'Table 1 (signed date) 2018[Signed Date]' <= EARLIER ( 'Table 1 (signed date) 2018'[Signed Date] )

)

 

Goal:

Be able to see the running total per month / quarter for Table 1 and Table 2 while being able to display by Segment.

 

I hope I could explain myself correctly...

 

Thanks in Advance

 

Best Regards

Fatih
