Running Calculation (Date part will run out)

Hello 😁

 

I would like some help with cracking a running total formula that I have been struggling with for a while. 

 

I basically need to show when each part number will run out... 

These are my columns; 

  • OH ( on hand) quanity which we have on site. 
  • Req QTY ( Required total amount ) which tells me how many of this part we need
  • Item which are the part numbers 
  • Sales Order which is a unique product number where the part will be build on 
  • Actual Lauch Date which tells me when the product will be used in the factory 

I have added these columns into a table to visualise.

I would like another column on the end which will take the total amount of this part number (131,306.00) and take each row away from the total. Once it reaches 0, i will then create some sort of visual to highlight the actual launch date. 

I have tried a few rolling total formulas but it does not want to take the total amount and subtract it, instead it seems to formulate a row at a time.

 

Any suggestions/ help will be appreciated

 

 

Kind regards,

Hi @MicaelaTantum ,

 

"I would like another column on the end which will take the total amount of this part number (131,306.00) and take each row away from the total. Once it reaches 0, i will then create some sort of visual to highlight the actual launch date. "

Create measures like this:

Measure 3 = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(Sheet4[REQD_QTY]),
    FILTER(
        ALLSELECTED(Sheet4),
        Sheet4[Sales Order] <= MAX(Sheet4[Sales Order])
    )
)
Measure 4 = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(Sheet4[REQD_QTY]),
    ALL(Sheet4)
)
Measure 5 = [Measure 4] - [Measure 3]

Result picture
