Hi Guys
Firstly, huge thanks with all the help you've provided so far. Piecing bits together from other answers has enabled me to get to this point, but now I'm stuck and I'm at my wits end.
Below is the code I've created so far. And it works, it just takes so long to run (and that's with a much reduced sample file saved as a CSV file). I think it's at the BufferedCaseNo steps. I can't do this in DAX as I need the answer in this dataset to continue with the calculation, however I'm not certain as I'm still relatively new to Power Query. Any suggestions in where I can speed this up, would be greatly received.
Thanks!

Hi @Adam_Payne ,
you might have special characters in your column name?
Please find a file attached where the running total function is working with that column name. Hopefully this will help you detect the error in your file.

Thank you so much. I'm still struggling to make it work. 7 hours so far today! Will keep you posted.
Hi @Adam_Payne ,
yes, that makes sense now: Your running total needs to go through the whole table and has to store each step in there. As you are trying to create a grouped/clustered running total, it would be much better if you would group your table on [CaseNo] and apply the running total function on the resulting partitions. I've described that procedure here:
Memory efficient clustered running total in Power BI – The BIccountant
If your data isn't sorted by CaseNo already, you must omitt the change to "GroupKind.Local".

It's defintiely running faster (thank you!!), but now I'm getting a couple of errors and I can't figure out how to fix them.
1. It's saying the column 'Sec Total Avg SEI' wasn't found. It's in the source table, and if I was to manually expand the columns, it's in the expandable columns too. Do I need to expand all the columns that I need?
2. The running total column just errors. I think I may have the wrong field selected within the code!

Thanks for that!
OK, i think I understand what this is doing. I've put this into the function fxSecRunningTotal and now adjusting the made bit of code.
Additional question though, I need to do this for three different fields. At the moment I have the same function three times, but with different names (the running totals are calculated in different queries, of which I've shared the code for just one). Am I right in thinking I can remove the other two functions, and just use this new one?
Hi @Adam_Payne ,
could be that the reason for this lies in the function for the running total "fxSecRunningTotal". Could you please paste the code for it as well?
