I want to use 24.80%(measure) for my calculations in below table(visual). But I want this to be remains constant and not update with first column. Is there a way this can be achieved?
Use this measure:
Chat Containment = "24.80%"

I need some help creating a measure to change the name of "FROM_USER" in the slicer here.
I think I need to use the function SELECTEDVALUE, but I have not managed to get it working.
So, the column has only two values, CRAWLER and FROM_USER.
Any suggestions would be helpful!
See picture
Measures can't be used as slicer values. If you want the column values to be changed and yet to be used in a slicer, you need to create a calculate column to change that.
Column = IF('Table'[Column1]="FROM_USER","desiredValue","CRAWLER")
If you are really keen on using a measure to slice, you need to build a disconnected table and follow the method described here. But the performance will take a hit depending on how complex your data model and calculations are.
got stuck with this one for a while. Need to repeat 165608547,90 in a Separate Column. Simple AVERAGEX(Sales[Turnover]) does not work. Thank you for any help
This would be best achieved through using a DAX measure.
Avg Cost = CALCULATE(AVERAGE('YourTable'[Amount]), ALL('YourTable'))
As per the comments added, if you want existing slicers to be respected, use ALLSELECTED in place of ALL. In some cases ALLEXCEPT could also be a solution.
Note, this must be a measure and not a column.
This measure will provide the average for everything in the table when it is added as a field in the matrix/table. The ALL keyword removes any filters applied to the data during the calculation.
See DAX ALL
I am trying to get the first 4 digits from a string from a table in Power BI. The connection is a live connection / Direct which does not allow me to edit the query. Also, I am unable to create a new column. So I have to stick with creating a new Measure.
Now, I am using the following formula to get what I need.
LocationCd = mid(vw_DW_Contracts[ContractNumber],1,5)
but, this is not working a the vw_DW_Contracts table cannot be used in a measure. Is there a workaround to such problem?
I do not have access to the analysis service so cannot make any modifications in the source.
Please help.
Thanks
but, this is not working a the vw_DW_Contracts table cannot be used in a measure.
I'm not sure what you mean by this, but I'm guessing the message you see is telling you that measures expect an aggregation. The formula you posted would be great as a calculated column where it can be evaluated row by row. Measures are aggregations over multiple rows.
If you are trying to make a new field that is the location code that can be used in visuals on a categorical axis, this should be a column rather than a measure. You could write a measure to show a location cd using something like LASTNONBLANK (mid(vw_DW_Contracts[ContractNumber],1,5), 1) but I doubt that is what you want.
I have created LOD expressions in Tableau before which dynamically calculate when filters are applied. I am trying to achieve similar functionality in Power BI. I am very new to Power BI so I probably didn't ask google the right question. I simply want a column that shows the average sales over my "Filtered" data set. The closest I cam was using the Calculate(average(table[column]),All(table)) but that does not dynamically change when I apply the date slider. If I filter for 1/1 - 1/5 I want that average. Change the date range, the average should change.
Thank you.
You are probably looking for the ALLEXCEPT() function. In this case you would do something like
CALCULATE(AVERAGE(table[column]), ALLEXCEPT(table, table[date]))
that is basically saying that you want to remove all filters on the table except the filters on the date column.
CALCULATE(
AVERAGE(Table[Column]),
ALLSELECTED()
)
I am working in a data analysis project using MS Power BI, thankfully I'm doing good work to start. However, I'm facing a little problem with DAX syntax. I come from a web development background. Anyways, my current problem is that I have rental vehicles, which can be rented from one branch and handed in at another.
I would like to compare two columns values in the same table. 'owner_branch' and 'current_branch'. Is it a good choice to create a filter with DAX? Or should I move to R Language?
If I understood your problem correct you need Calculated Column like this:
CompCol = IF ( Owner_Branch = Current_Branch, TRUE, FALSE )
as a temporary solution which I think that is not an efficient solution for a larger records in future. Anyways, my solution was creating a new column type of boolean.
