I have below table structure:
enter image description here
here I want to put a date slicer in Power BI to filter on dates and return the count of total rows as total in the card as shown below:
enter image description here
simple, the only twist is that I want to have the total of hybrid car added at all times.
i.e.
Brands before 5/25/2020 = 4 Hybrid + 1 Electric = 5
Brands before 12/5/2020 = 4 Hybrid + 3 Electric = 7
I have found a solution, which is creating a view in my database, which jus holds the number count of hybrid car (select count(*) from table where cartype = 'hybrid') and using it to sum with filter rows in power bi - but I am looking for a solution completely in Power BI DAX query.
any measure I have tried to create in power bi is filtered by date slicer and so doesn't work.
Create these measure:
TOTALROWS = COUNT('cars'[brand])
ELECTRIC_NUM = CALCULATE([TotalRows],('cars'),'cars'[cartype]="ELECTRIC")
HYBRID_NUM = CALCULATE([TOTALROWS],ALL('cars'),'cars'[cartype]="HYBRID")
TOTALBYBUSINESSLOGIC = CALCULATE([ELECTRIC_NUM]+[HYBRID_NUM])
Now use the last measure (i.e. TOTALBYBUSINESSLOGIC) to be used in your Card to display the total, Notice the expression diffrence between ELECTRIC_NUM and HYBRID_NUM
(In HYBRID_NUM I have used ALL, All will have it bypass the Date Slicer filter) whereas ELECTRIC_NUM will only proivde sum of rows falling in the active date sliver range.

I am super new to power bi and Dax and i need to create a calculated column in which i have the total sales for each country respectively.
Here is a screenshot with an oversimplified scenario but if i can do it for this data i can do it in my actual project since the concept is the same.
The column TotalSalesPerCountry is the calculated column.
And here is what the column should look like if it worked. (Colors are just for visual representation)
Basically everywhere you see the same country you should see the same TotalSalesPerCountry values which are calculated by sum-ing the Sales for those countries over the years.
Another DAX function:
= CALCULATE(SUM(CountrySales[Sales]), FILTER(CountrySales, CountrySales[Country] = EARLIER (CountrySales[Country])))
This is simple to do in DAX. Add the column:
TotalSalesPerCountry =
var curCountry = yourTable[Country]
return CALCULATE(SUM(Sales), FILTER(yourTable, curCountry = yourTable[Country]))
Explanation:
For each row in the table, get the country. Filter yourTable on the curCountry and SUM this together).
Power BI newbie here and I'm trying to figure how to craft my DAX to manipulate my measure values based on certain criteria in the other two tables.
Currently I have 2 separate tables which are joined by a One to Many relationship and a separate Measures table. (Total Sales Price is computed as sum of Sales Price)
My aim is to create a new measure where Total Sales Price is multiplied by 1.5x when DIM_Product_Type[Product Category] = "High".
New Measure =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( FACT_PriceDetails[Sales Price] ),
FILTER ( DIM_Product_Type, DIM_Product_Type[Product Category] = "High" )
) * 1.5
However this returns no values in my visual and I'm trying to discern if its a matter of the table joins or the DAX expressions.
Thank you for your time!
Your measure seems good.
It will select only those products with a Product Category of "High" and multiply them by 1.5 to give you result. i.e. Give me the sum of all "High" Product category Price details multiplied by 1.5.
What you need to check is:
Product Serial Numbers match across the two tables
Your Product Category does indeed contain the category "High"
You have entries in FACT_PriceDetails that link to a DIM_Product_Type that has a category of "High"
Check you have not set any filters that could be hijacking your results (e.g. excluding the "High" product category product type or the realated fact/s)
Option-1
You can do some Transformation in Power Query Editor to create a new column new sales price with applying conditions as stated below-
First, Merge you Dim and Fact table and bring the Product Category value to your Fact table as below-
You have Product Category value in each row after expanding the Table after merge. Now create a custom column as shown below-
Finally, you can go to your report and create your Total Sales measure using the new column new sales price
Option-2
You can also archive the same using DAX as stated below-
First, create a Custom Column as below-
sales amount new =
if(
RELATED(dim_product_type[product category]) = "High",
fact_pricedetails[sales price] * 1.5,
fact_pricedetails[sales price]
)
Now create your Total Sales Amount measure as below-
total_sales_amount = SUM(fact_pricedetails[sales amount new])
For both above case, you will get the same output.
Hopefully a quick explanation of what I am hoping to accomplish followed by the approach we've been working on for over a year.
Desired Result
I have a table of SCD values with two columns, SCD_Valid_From and SCD_Valid_To. Is there a way to join a date table in my model (or simply use a slicer without a join) in order to be able to choose a specific date that is in between the two SCD columns and have that row of data returned?
Original Table
ID | SCD_Valid_From | SCR_Valid_To | Cost
1 2020-08-01 2020-08-03 5.00
Slicer date chosen is 2020-08-02. I would like this ID=1 record to be returned.
What We've Attempted So Far
We had a consultant come in and help us get Power BI launched last year. His solution was to create an expansion table that would contain a row for every ID/Date combination.
Expanded Original Table
ID | SCD_Valid_Date | Cost
1 2020-08-01 5.00
1 2020-08-02 5.00
1 2020-08-03 5.00
This was happening originally on the Power BI side, and we would use incremental refresh to control how much of this table was getting pushed each day. Long story short, this was extremely inefficient and made the refresh too slow to be effective - for 5 years' worth of data, we would need over 2000 rows per ID just to be able to select a dimensional record.
Is there a way to use a slicer where Power BI can select the records where that selected date falls between dates in two columns of a table?
Let me explain a workaround and I hope this will help you to solve your issue. Let me guess you have below 2 tables-
"Dates" table with column "Date" from where you are generating the date slicer.
"your_main_table" with with column "scd_valid_from" and "scd_valid_to".
Step-1: If you do not have relation between table "Dates" and "your_main_table", this is fine as other wise you have to create a new table like "Dates2". For this work around, you can not have relation between those tables.
In case you have already relation established between those tables, create a new custom table with this below code-
Dates2 =
SELECTCOLUMNS(
Dates,
"Date", Dates[Date]
)
From here, I will consider "Dates2" as source of your Date slicer. But if you have "Date" table with no relation with table "your_main_table", just consider "Dates" in place of "Dates2" in below measures creation. Now, Create these following 4 measures in your table "your_main_table"
1.
date_from_current_row = max(join_using_date_range[SCD_Valid_From])
2.
date_to_current_row = max(join_using_date_range[SCD_Valid_to])
3.
date_selected_in_slicer = SELECTEDVALUE(Dates2[Date])
4.
show_hide_row =
if(
[date_selected_in_slicer] >= [date_from_current_row]
&& [date_selected_in_slicer] <= [date_to_current_row]
,
1,
0
)
Now you have all instruments ready for play. Create your visual using columns from the table "your_main_table"
Final Step: Now just add a visual level filter with the measure "show_hide_row" and set value will show only when "show_hide_row = 1".
The final output will be something like below image-
I have a requirement where i have to summarise the sales data by department and then create a calculated column to show the percentage of how much each department had contributed towards total sales.
Here % should be the calculated column in Direct Query Mode
Since you did not provide much information or what you have already tried, I can't really guess your model, but I hope this gives you a starting point.
Create a new measure:
(replace the table name where needed)
% Sales Sub Category = DIVIDE(
SUM('Sales'[Sales]),
CALCULATE(SUM('Sales'[Sales]), ALL('Sales'[Sub Category])
)
I am fairly new to PowerBI DAX and I want to filter out the top 20 product ids in a measure.
I came up with this formula but it does not seem to be working and I was hoping to get some help here.
$ Amount Parcel =
CALCULATE(
SUM(Data[$ Amount Parcel]),
FILTER (Data, NOT (Data[idProduct], SUM(Data[NetSales])) IN TOPN(20, SUMMARIZE(Data, Data[idProduct], "NetSales", SUM(Data[NetSales]))))
)
I want to show sales per PID for all products except for our 20 best sellers.
Thank you !!
I would suggest an easier approach adding a dimension column.
First of all, you need to have Product dimension table separated from Sales fact table. Make sure to create one-to-many relationship between Product and Sales with "Single" cross filter direction.
Then you can create a calculated column on Product table, which can be used to filter out top selling products.
Sales Rank = RANKX('Product', CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[SalesAmount])))
Now drag and drop Sales Rank field into the Filters pane of your visualization, and set the filter condition so that top selling products will not be shown.
