Hi @oren ,

I created a calculated column to implement it. Please modify the formula based on your data model and have a try.

difference = 
var a = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales]),FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Item]),'Table'[ID] = EARLIER('Table'[ID])-1))
return
IF(a= BLANK(),BLANK(),'Table'[Sales] - a)

If the ID column in my sample is not same as yours, you could try to create another column using RANKX to implement.

RANKX = RANKX(FILTER('Table','Table'[Item] = EARLIER('Table'[Item])),'Table'[Sales],,ASC,Dense)
