70000232111012
70000234111012
70000239111012

Hi @KNguyen ,

 

I did this simply by adding a number column, and using the Running Total tool.

You can also do it with a multi-row but this was means you don't need to write a formula.

I hope this helps,

Oh this is awesome! The multi-row tool. I wasn't able to get the running total to work. But got the multi-row tool to work. The running total, for some reason the create running total section doesn't show the number field i created.
