Hi all
I need to do a simple running total with sort by date
in the below sample I need to create a measure as the same of Running Total and that counts the CODE and sort based on Date exactly like the Running Total column
| CODE | Date | Running Total |
| B | 1/07/2021 | 1 |
| A | 4/07/2021 | 2 |
| A | 7/07/2021 | 2 |
| D | 9/07/2021 | 3 |
| C | 9/07/2021 | 4 |
| F | 15/07/2021 | 5 |
| F | 20/07/2021 | 6 |
| F | 20/07/2021 | 6 |
| E | 20/07/2021 | 6 |
| Total | 31/07/2021 | 6 |
is that possible ?
Thanks all
Solved! Go to Solution.
you can try this
Measure =
VAR _total=CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[CODE]),FILTER(all('Table'),'Table'[Date]<=max('Table'[Date])))
return if (ISFILTERED('Table'[CODE]),_total, DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[CODE]))

Hi,
There are duplicate combinations of CODE and Date i.e. F and 20/7/2021. Is this by design? I ask because when these 2 columns will be dragged to the visual, you will see only 1 row for F and 20/7/2021. Is there any other column you have in your dataset which makes the CODE and Date combination unique? If not, then would you want a calculated column solution instead of a measure?
