to calculate sum on the column filtered data

Hi,

 

I have a table with multiple columns but i want to performa calculation on 2 columns. here is the sample data.

 

I want to find the last non zero value in column A and then get the sum of all the values in column B starting from Last non-zero value of column A till all the rows with 0 values in column A. In short, calculation needs to be performed on highlighted area only.

 

Please let me know how can i do that. Appreciate any help.

 

Thanks in Advance

Create the following measure:

Measure = 
VAR __LastNonBlank = LASTNONBLANKVALUE( Table1[A] , MAX(Table1[Index] ))
RETURN
CALCULATE(
    SUM(Table1[B]),
    Table1[Index] >= __LastNonBlank
)

Hi @Fowmy , 

 

The above provided solution is not working for this data set. would you please help me with that?

 

what i understand after testing the above measure that MAX fucntion is not working properly, its not picking up the correct last non-zero value in a column. 

 

Your help in this matter is highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance!
