Cumulative sum - Start time as Categories & Count of Start time

Hi,

I need help in getting the cumulative sum of the sample matrix table below

Time Count of time
06:00 - 10
07:00 - 20
08:00 - 30
09:30 - 40

The time and count of time were all from the same column.

RE: Cumulative sum - Start time as Categories & Count of Start t

Hi Katherine,

Thank you for the forum question.

You will have to split the column into two columns to calculate cumulative sum.

To help with the DAX for the cumulative sum I will need to know if you have a DATE table and if the cumulative sum should be calculated over periods.

Kind regards

Hi Jens,

Thank you for your response.

Will split it into two columns as suggested.

Yes, I do have a date table on my dataset.

I am not sure if it is possible, but I would like the count to reduce once particularly shift has ended.

For instance, the shift will start at 6AM and end at 2PM.
Then, it wouldn't be counted anymore for the succeeding intervals.
Please see sample below:

06:00 1
06:30 1
07:00 1
07:30 1
08:00 1
08:30 1
09:00 1
09:30 1
10:00 1
10:30 1
11:00 1
11:30 1
12:00 1
12:30 1
13:00 1
13:30 1
14:00 0
14:30 0
15:00 0
15:30 0

Power BI tip:

Scheduled Refresh and Power BI Service

If you're using Power BI Service, set up scheduled refresh for your datasets. This ensures that your reports are always up-to-date with the latest data. Understand the refresh limits imposed by Power BI Service and optimize your data model and queries to stay within those constraints.
