Hi
To get rid of the circular reference, you use this article from
Basically, your Ending Balance formula will be :PREVIOUS(Month) + Movements_In + Movements_Out
Your Beginning Balance formula will be :
‘Ending Balance’[SELECT:Month-1]
Also, if you only intend to display the Beginning Balance in a table, you just need to create the Ending Balance metric and add it twice to the table :
- One to display the Ending Balance data
- One to display the Beginning Balance data by leveraging the Show Value As functionality with an Offset on Previous month item.

Let me know if that makes sense
