Hi Aleksandrs,

loading as an example the data you posted, like so:

l

oad * Inline

[

Month,Year,Sales

dec,2016,10

dec,2017,12

dec,2018,10

jan,2016,9

jan,2017,6

jan,2018,8

feb,2016,15

feb,2017,16

feb,2018,18

];

You can get it by using the before statement: before(sum(Sales)).

What it does, on a pivot table, is to get the previous (left) value.

Using the expression, I got:

See the attached QVW for example and further expressions that I added.
