Power BI DAX: Calculate Running Total for Past N Days, excluding the days that don't match criteria.

Creating a Running Total is pretty simple in DAX, you just take a measure, wrap it inside CALCULATE and then with the help of DATESYTD you can start cumulative total for Dates, Month and one Year ( DATESYTD ) resets at the beginning of new year or any date that you specify in the second argument. Below is an example of a running total using DATESYTD: 1 2 3 4 5 Running Total = CALCULATE ( [Total Sales], DATESYTD ( Dates[ Date ] ) ) One of the problems with DATESYTD is that it does not offer the ability to implement any kind of logic, by logic I mean the ability to filter dates based on the business conditions and then run a cumulative total on it.

This newly opened pane allows you to drag and drop columns and In this pane you can also add and create new measures. Once you drag columns or measure just click Run Query and Dax Studio will generate result in the result pane If you are like me who likes to investigate the code generated behind the Queries then you can click on “Edit Query” option and it will present the code generated by Query builder.
