Rolling Sum As a Calculated Column Categoried by Multiple Columns

DAX Calculations
#1

Hello All!,

I tried searching around the forum for my question/situation but have yet to see this here.
I need to add a Rolling Sum column into my dataset where they are grouped by three categories/columns;

  1. Customer
  2. Item
  3. Location

I then need to order them by my Date field called MaxDate.
So basically it should create a rolling sum of inventory where Customer,Item, and Location are all the same and order them by their MaxDate.

I know this can be done as a measure but for my case I need it to be a calculated column.
If I need to expand on my topic please let me know! :slight_smile: Thanks

I think the why is important here because it reads as though you want to add a high cardinality column to a potentially very large fact table. Furthermore a calculated column is evaluated at refresh time meaning that results thereafter are static and can’t be influenced by slicers or selections…

So why do you think you need a calculated column?

Also, should you need further assistance, provide a PBIX and a mock up of the desired results.
