Hi Team,
I Want to build a logic in measure based on the below.
Outcome row E2 =D2
Outcome row E3 =E2+C3
Outcome row E4 =E3+C4
Outcome row E5 =E4+C5
.... And so on...
I have attached the sample outcome looks like.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @venkatasreekant ,
1. Please try to create a measure with below dax formula:
Measure =
VAR max_val =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Max Value] )
VAR cur_month =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Month] )
VAR tmp =
FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), [Month] >= cur_month )
VAR _a =
SUMX ( tmp, [Pre_Off-On] )
RETURN
max_val + _a
2. add a table visual with fields and measure
Please refer the attached .pbix file.

@venkatasreekant That strikes me as recusive and thus not possible in DAX.
