    Hi, 

    You can use a formula like the following, if you use the ID field as order field (you could possibly rather use a date+time field for this).

     

    let myID := _id;
    let before_d := sum((select myTable).Debtor);
    let before_c := sum((select myTable).Credit);
    before_d - before_c

    Hi, 

    Sorry, I missed the condition. Please try this formula:

     

    let myID := _id;
    let before_d := sum((select myTable)[Id <= myID].Debtor);
    let before_c := sum((select myTable)[Id <= myID].Credit);
    before_d - before_c

    Hi, 

    You can use the styled() function for that.

     

    let myID := _id;
    let before_d := sum((select myTable)[Id <= myID].Debtor);
    let before_c := sum((select myTable)[Id <= myID].Credit);
    let result := before_d - before_c;
    styled(text(result), if text(result) < 0 then "red" else "green" end, "")

    Best, Jörg

    Hi, 

    I checked it now with your example and I realised the it was because of using the Ninox Id to order the records. As they are not stored in a number field but in a text field the order will fail the expected result starting with the 10th row as it will be ordered alphanumerically.

    To avoid this please use the formula as follows: 

     

    let myID := number(_id);
    let before_d := sum((select myTable)[number(Id) <= myID].Debtor);
    let before_c := sum((select myTable)[number(Id) <= myID].Credit);
    let result := before_d - before_c;
    styled(text(result), if text(result) < 0 then "red" else "green" end, "")

     

    Best, Jörg
