Running Total in Qlikview

My table has the stock movement for each item by day. So at any point if I want to find the current stock, I need to sum all the stock movements from the day business started.

Now I want to create a report which shows the stock level over a period of time. The period can be selected by the user.

Here is a simplified version of my table:

Stock:

LOAD * INLINE

[Brand,Item,Reason,Date,StockMovement

EveLom,E001,OpeningStock,01/01/2014,200

EveLom,E001,Sale,05/01/2014,-100

EveLom,E001,Purchase,01/03/2014,100

EveLom,E001,Sale,01/05/2014,-50

EveLom,E001,Sale,01/10/2014,-50

EveLom,E001,Sale,21/10/2014,-20

EveLom,E001,Sale,01/01/2015,-30

EveLom,E001,Sale,01/03/2015,-10

EveLom,E001,Purchase,01/04/2014,100

There four items and they are grouped under 2 brands.

Now I want a stacked bar chart for Stock Level by Brand Vs Month.

The chart should look like below. (I created this one for sales.)

Months will be in X-Axis.

Stock will be in Y-Axis.

I have attached a qvw document with the sample data and calendar.

I tried several methods without any success. Any ideas/guidance will be much appreciated.

This prints correct values but when I select Year 2015, it still shows the values for 2014 as well.

When Year 2015 is selected, only months from 2015 should be shown.

I am not sure on how to do that without modifying the backend script, I would suggest using Ruben solution instead

Thanks. This is the best solution I have come across. I marked yours as the correct answer.
