Example
The following sample formula creates a measure that calculates the 'Month Start Inventory Value' of the product inventory.
To see how this works, create a PivotTable and add the fields, CalendarYear, MonthNumberOfYear and DayNumberOfMonth, to the Row Labels area of the PivotTable. Then add a measure, named Month Start Inventory Value, using the formula defined in the code section, to the Values area of the PivotTable.
Code
=OPENINGBALANCEMONTH(SUMX(ProductInventory,ProductInventory[UnitCost]*ProductInventory[UnitsBalance]),DateTime[DateKey])
