special cumulative sum

What I start with is quantity sold of an item per period. Periode 2 is a cumul of period 1. Sometimes the item change providor period 2. My goal is to find the amount sold each period per item per provider.

Here's an example 

ref provider ref//provider Periode 1 Quantity1 Periode 2 Quantity2
1 247 1//247   10   10
1 555 1//555   0   23
3 555 3//555   15   15
3 88 3//88   0   32
5 89 5//89   5   10
5 90 5//90   0   0
8 91 8//91   20   40
8 92 8//92   0   0
24 93 24//93   10   10
24 94 24//94   0   20
24 95 24//95   0   0
26 96 26//96   -100   -100
26 97 26//97   0   50
28 98 28//98   -120   -120
28 99 28//99   0   -100
29 100 29/100   10   45
30 5 30//5   0   0
31 6 31//6   -1546   100
32 7 32//7   -500   -500
32 8 32//8   0   250
32 9 32//9   0   0
32 10 32//10   0   0

 

The problem with this is that if I do a sum of the column quantity2, I don't get the real amount sold during that period. I get the real value + the cumul of the same ref sold previous periods

Ideally, I'd want to get this  

ref fourn ref//fourn T1 Qte T2 Qte
1 247 1//247   10   10
1 555 1//555   0   13
3 555 3//555   15   15
3 88 3//88   0   17
5 89 5//89   5   10
5 90 5//90   0   0
8 91 8//91   20   40
8 92 8//92   0   0
24 93 24//93   10   10
24 94 24//94   0   10
24 95 24//95   0   0
26 96 26//96   -100   -100
26 97 26//97   0   150
28 98 28//98   -120   -120
28 99 28//99   0   20
29 100 29/100   10   45
30 5 30//5   0   0
31 6 31//6   -1546   100
32 7 32//7   -500   -500
32 8 32//8   0   750
32 9 32//9   0   0
32 10 32//10   0   0

 

I get the real amount of things sold per ref//fourn. Each period. 

 

I've been able to this by hand but using talend, I find it quite challenging. At first, I looked at the biggest number in quantity grouped by ref using an taggregateRow. Then from those I'd remove the other quantity in the same grouped by ref. It worked well for positive numbers but badly for negative number. Especially those with 0 as quantity and minuses

Thank you so much for your help
