Cumulative sum per month for balance sheet account
Dear all, I have a table with general ledger movements, and I want a bar chart showing the sum of these amounts per month/year.
It's cumulative data, so the bar chart should show e.g. jan/2021 - feb/2021 - mar/2021 whereby the amount in each month is cumulative for the month in question and all previous months.
Below sample table of my data, with the column Desired Outcome what needs be shown in the bar chart.
YearMonth | Amount | Desired Outcome | |
2024-Jul | -98.164,39 | 88.433,27 | all data |
2024-Jun | 41.816,93 | 186.597,66 | all data up to jun 2024 |
2024-May | 13.591,33 | 144.780,73 | all data up to may 2024 |
2024-Apr | -228.636,43 | 131.189,40 | all data up to apr 2024 |
2024-Mar | 191.707,76 | and so forth…. | |
2024-Feb | -50.594,50 | ||
2024-Jan | 95.192,49 | ||
2023-Dec | -2.823,69 | ||
2023-Nov | -44.201,88 | ||
2023-Oct | 70.545,65 | ||
2023-Sep | 100.000,00 |
This is the formula I tried, with no succes.
Sum({< [YearMonth] = {"<=$(=Max(YearMonth))"} >} ActAmount) |
Can somebody help please.
Many thanks,
Paul

@PLE If your YearMonth is Numeric, you can try sorting by Month in Aggr. Remove set analysis of YearMonth
=sum(aggr(rangesum(above(Sum({<YearMonth>}ActAmount),0,rowno())),(YearMonth,(NUMERIC)))

@PLE with Month Year in dimension you cannot use set analysis. Try below
=sum(aggr(rangesum(above(Sum({<YearMonth>}ActAmount),0,rowno(total))),YearMonth))

Hi Kushal, thanks for the tip, but this isn't working either. Am still looking for a solution.
What alternative do I have when not using month year but using the calander date itself ?
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Kushal, attached printscreen of the formula I used.
You see in the second column the total that is correct, but the individual months don't show cumulative amounts.
