I need to create an indicator on power bi equal to one used in excel. Everything okay until I try to refer to the previous value of the indicator. Here's a screenshot of how the indicator structure works in excel. How could i do this "G2" reference in power bi?
Looks like you're after a rolling or cumulative. Try https://www.daxpatterns.com/cumulative-total/ or maybe a SUMX with EARLIER.
Basically, you need to tell the DAX which row so you'll need to use the date or an index column.
In fact, this indicator is generated daily, based on the yesterday indicator number. This indicator column should calculate different results to each day. I need a dax formula that behave just like the excel formula.
So maybe something like:
Measure = SUMX('Table', [Rate]* LOOKUPVALUE([Rate2], [Indicator], [Indicator]-1) )
In this case I have problems with circular references.
