Backlog Calculation for Bar Chart


Hi All,

I need your help, I have attached an excel file where I am having data as below,

Month# Opened Request# Closed RequestBacklogBacklog Calculation
Jan48351313

Dec75701025+97

I want to show this data in Bar Chart, but here is one problem. The data I provided is the expected output (using exprtession). I could able to write the expression for "# Opened Request" and "# Closed Request" but I am not able to write expression for BACKLOG column. Backlog is nothing but the reminder or Opened - Closed and addition of previous result to it (I did provided calculation of Backlog for your understanding).

The expressions I used for  "# Opened Request" and "# Closed Request" are as below,

"# Opened Request" : sum (Open_Ticket_Count)

"# Closed Request" : sum (Closed_ticket_count)

Can anyone please help me with how can I write expression for "Backlog"?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Abhishek
