HI @amitchandak 

 

 Tried your calculation/DAX and referred to files attached, i am getting solution, but the count is wrong and difference of current Month(Open-closed)+ diff of previous month = Backlog count. This count i am unable to get it. Kindly help

 

For ex: lets say earlier to March month Backlog was 100 after all calculations.

Now

            March: Open =250; Closed=180; Diff=(250-180)=70; Backlog 70+100=170

            April: Open=410; Closed=315; Diff=(410-315)=95; Backlog 95+170=265

This Backlog count i need, PLease help

HI Amit

 

This gave me only difference of count which was almost near but couldnt find previous month backlog.

Accepting this as solution because same question has been raised in detail in other board in Desktop category. please provide solution in that.

 

Thanks for the support.
