Getting Previous Month Total in Matrix Tablix

    I'm creating a report that displays data in a Matrix tablix by month and business unit.

    I pretty much have it completed minus one crucial part that I need.

    As you can see in the picture, I have data for 07/2014 and 08/2014. Ending count for 07/2014 is -247. I'm wanting that -247 value to be displayed where the 0 is located right under 08/2014. Once I get the number in place, I'm going to sum that value with the new month's total, giving me an Ending Count.

    I thought I could use the PREVIOUS function, but it only worked for the previous row value, not column value.

    Thanks for any assistance.

    The LOOKUP function is what popped into my head, but I'm not positive that this will work.

    Thanks, I'll look into that.

    For now as a work around, I created a pivot table and just did a =ReportItems!textbox101.value and it worked just fine, but I rather use a matrix tablix.
