On to the next point, if a month row is missing, then it'd be ignored, so for month 6, we'd be summing month 6, month 5 (which'd be...

How about posting a dozen or so of these values?

UPDATE #Sample SET Metric2 = ISNULL(NULLIF(Metric1+Metric1-1+Metric1-2,0),1)

😉

What would be the value for month 5? Is the value 9 correct for month 4?

DROP TABLE #Sample

CREATE TABLE #Sample (Yearmonth DATE, Metric1 INT, Metric2 INT)

DROP TABLE #Application

CREATE TABLE #Application (BoxID INT, Province VARCHAR(10), BoxPosition INT)

INSERT INTO #Application (BoxID, Province, BoxPosition)

SELECT 5632, 'KZN', 1 UNION ALL

SELECT 5632, 'KZN', 2 UNION ALL

SELECT 5632, 'KZN', 3 UNION...

Can you please post the actual plan, and the view definition for ViewEntryDetails.

Cheers
