So, Let’s start with an example, download the sample Dataset from below link
Step-1: Create a calendar table to using existing dataset “Order Date” column.
Go to Modeling Tab > Click to table icon & write below DAX
Calendar = CALENDAR(MIN('Global-Superstore'[Order Date]), MAX('Global-Superstore'[Order Date]))
Step-2: After that create a relationship between both table.
Step-3: Now, create a measure to calculate the running total sum for sales.
QTDSales = TOTALQTD(SUM('Global-Superstore'[Sales]), 'Calendar'[Date])
Step-4: Drag QTDSales measure and Year, Quarter, Month & Day columns from Calendar table & Sales from Global-Superstore table.
As you see in above screen shot, it returns the running total for Quarter-1 sales. Here, current quarter months are – JAN, FEB & MAR.
For next Quarter, it will start sales summation from the beginning.Please refer to the screenshot below for Quarter 2.
