Hi All,

 

I am trying to calculate YTD for each month for 3 values: Value1, Value2 and Value3.

Attached is the data

 

I am looking forward to get the YTS as my YTD Value1, YTD Value2, YTD Value3.

I tried Running total it does not give me correct values. Please guide.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @farhana_91

 

The issue here would be that there is nothing to group your data by. I used a multirow to create a grouping field, based on date and project. You can customise this to suit your needs.

Hope this helps!

Agree with @kat solution, one slight simplification is to just use a formula tool to extract the year from the date.

A final little trick (that I like) s to use a dynamic rename to replace RunTotal_ with YTD.
