May be this

=Aggr(RangeSum(Above(Sum({<GLHeader= {1}>} GLTOTAL), 0, RowNo())), Branch, Month)

The issue is that RangeSum(Above()) accumulate for the second dimension (unless you have specified TOTAL which is not what you needed because then it accumulates regardless of your 1st dimension). Now the problem was that you had Month as your 1st dimension and Branch as your second dimension.... so the accumulation was taking place for Branch rather than accumulating for Months for a single branch. In order to fix this, we use Aggr() function where we supplied Branch as the first dimension and Month as the second dimension

=Aggr(RangeSum(Above(Sum({<GLHeader= {1}>} GLTOTAL), 0, RowNo())), Branch, Month)

Now there might have been a case where Month was not correctly sorted in the load script which can then be solved as mentioned here

The sortable Aggr function is finally here!

Did you select Branch or did it accidentally selected Month? May be try this

=Aggr(RangeSum(Above(Sum({<GLHeader= {1}, Month>} GLTOTAL), 0, RowNo())), Branch, Month)
