Can Power BI allow circular references?

Hi

 

Can Power BI allow circular references?

Like Excel

@HJK , I doubt that, But need context.

 

But formula like this  not supported 

 

B2 = B1+ A1

B3= B2+A2

 

The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please explain with an example.

Appreciate your Kudos.

Thank you for your reply.

 

This is a circular referencing Excel example.
This is a sample of costing by rolling up the BOM.
The purchased sub-item E goes into D, and D and C go into B.
Finally, B goes into A.
At this time, the same column F is referenced, but a circular reference error occurs in POWER BI.

No error occurs in Excel.

(check the excel formula)
I want to implement this in Power BI.
How can I do it?
