Running Sum on If statement in Power BI Table

Hello. I have a measure that is using an if statement for the result by month. I need a running sum of that monthly column

MonthlyCommEarnedCalc =
IF( [% Month Target] >1.0,
[Monthly Comm],
[MonthlyCommCalc]
)
I have tried several different ways to create the running sum and cant get it to work. Any help would be appreciated.
The calculation below is giving me the same value as the original measure.
RunSum Month Comm Earned =
CALCULATE(
[MonthlyCommEarnedCalc],
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED(Transactions[Fiscal Month]),
MIN(Transactions[Fiscal Month start Date]) <= MAX(Transactions[Fiscal Month End Date])

 

))

    Hi Anonymous 

    First, create the month column in numeric form.

    To calculate the running total for another measure then just add that measure code ( if block ) into your running total code.

    example code :

    Monthly Comm running sum = 
VAR month = MAX(Transactions[Fiscal Month])
VAR result =  CALCULATE(  
                         [MonthlyCommEarnedCalc],// OR Put if condtion measure code here
                         Transactions[Fiscal Month] <= month,
                         ALLSELECTED(Transactions)
                         )
 
Return result

    Anonymous This looks like a measure aggregation problem. See my blog article about that here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Design-Pattern-Groups-and-Super-Groups/ba-p/138149

    The pattern is:
    MinScoreMeasure = MINX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
    MaxScoreMeasure = MAXX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
    SumScoreMeasure = SUMX ( SUMMARIZE ( Table, Table[Group] , "Measure",[YourMeasure] ), [Measure])
    etc.
