I'd like to create a running total in a pivot table, but having difficult with the base field.

I don't want to have a running total grouped in any way for this dataset. It's not date based, and I basically want a running total that covers every item in the list. I know that for a running total to work, the base field has to exist within the rows (or columns?) section of the pivot table.

So with no date, and no existing common value in the dataset, is anyone able to help me with creating a running total on [Total Spend] that incorporates every row in the table?

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
Here's a small sample of the data and pivot - what I'm aiming for is to show a running total of FY24
