running total previous day

Hi @Hussein_charif ,

 

I can help you calculate the running total previous day.

Let’s start with some sample data and then I’ll show you how to calculate it.

Here’s some sample data:

Date SalesAmount
2024-10-01 100
2024-10-02 150
2024-10-03 200
2024-10-04 250
2024-10-05 300

 

We want to calculate the running total of SalesAmount for the previous day. The expected result would look like this:

Date SalesAmount RunningTotalPreviousDay
2024-10-01 100 0
2024-10-02 150 100
2024-10-03 200 250
2024-10-04 250 450
2024-10-05 300 700

 

You can create a measure to achieve this.

RunningTotalPreviousDay = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[SalesAmount]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),[Date]<=MAX('Table'[Date])-1))+0
