With the following table, I would like to write a measure that calculates the running total of the "Amount" field based on the sorted "Amount" field.
Input:
Product | Amount |
A | 5 |
B | 20 |
C | 20 |
D | 50 |
E | 10 |
F | 30 |
Ideal Output:
Product | Amount | Running Total |
D | 50 | 50 |
F | 30 | 80 |
B | 20 | 100 |
C | 20 | 120 |
E | 10 | 130 |
A | 5 | 135 |
But with the following DAX formula "Running Amount", I could not achieve the ideal output as there are two Products with the same Amount, i.e. B and C. Because of this, the FILTER function returns two rows at the same time, which gives the sum of 40, that resulted in the actual output below.
Running Amount =
CALCULATE(
SUM(Sheet1[Amount]),
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED('Sheet1'),
Sheet1[Amount] >= MIN(Sheet1[Amount])
)
)
Actual Output: Instead of summing to 100 from 80, the calculation jumps directly to summing 40 for the next two rows after 80.
Product | Amount | Running Total |
D | 50 | 50 |
F | 30 | 80 |
B | 20 | 120 |
C | 20 | 120 |
E | 10 | 130 |
A | 5 | 135 |
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

@Anonymous , I create a column
Amount1 = [Amount] + RAND()/10000
and measure
Running Amount =
CALCULATE(
SUM('Table'[Amount]),
FILTER(
ALLSELECTED('Table'),
'Table'[Amount1] >= MIN('Table'[Amount1])
)
)
but position of 100 and 120 can swap
@Anonymous , Create a rank with Random variable(to break tie) and try to use that.
