I'm still very new to PowerBI and learning as I go.
I'm making a report for user permissions and want to hide the rows where someone has no permissions for a screen, where its all 0's but want to see the row if it as at least one '1' in it.
I've done some searching but can't find how to do it.
If you use Blank instead of 0 this will happen automatically. Otherwise write a measure like
MaxValue = max('Table'[Column2]) + max('Table'[Column3]) + max('Table'[Column4])
And use it in a visual-level filter.

I want to hide all cost centers, where both values are 0. Currently, it looks like that but it doesn't really work because if one value is 0 and the other one is greater than 0 it gets hidden instead of shown.
Here is my diagram:
So if the blue bar is 0 and the other is 3 it gets hidden. Is it possible to connect both if's to avoid that? It looks like that until now:
The filters combine using AND logic rather than OR logic.
One possibility is to create a new measure just for filtering.
FilterMeasure = SUM(TableName[Act_FTE]) + SUM(TableName[Plan_FTE])
Put that measure in your visual filters box and require it to be greater than zero. (Make sure to clear the filters on the component pieces.)
I am creating an excel sheet with following Data Validation drop down list.
NA
Done
(add some formula here)
Basically, i will be able to select either plain text "NA"/ "Done" from the dropdown list. But sometimes, I want the user to be able to calculate some values based on the cell respective to the row selected so, I want to have one formula as a choice inside the data validation dropdown list. Is this possible?
Data Validation List Source
When I click on Formulae option, it should execute the formula with respect to the cells in that Row
But currently, the formula that i put in doesn't execute, instead it will just show the whole formula in the cell when activated.
1)How can i make it so that when i select the formula from data validation list, it will execute it instead of filling up the cell with it?
2)How do i set the formula so that it will be using the cell from the current Row? (for example, if i am using the data validation List in N60, the formula should adapt itself to use the cell (let's say A60?).
I may not be able to help with the second part, but I was seeking an answer to the first and discovered a solution/workaround using Name Manager.
First, in Formula > Name Manager, create a new reference (the "refers to" will contain whatever formula you are wishing to ultimately display in the validation list. For this example, we use the formula reference "=IF($H54=..." and Name it "UniqueName"
Now, we go into Data Validation, Select List, and input the three items we want displayed in the list, with an equals sign preceding our newly named reference: ie. "NA,Done,=UniqueName"
Note: You can't start with the =UniqueName or validation will try to read it all as a formula and fail.
This method will allow the user to display "NA", "Done", or "=UniqueName" in the cell; if "=UniqueName" is selected, the cell itself will interpret this as a formula and execute it accordingly, displaying the results of "=IF($H54=...", or whateverelse you have designated to use as a named formula.
If it's too late for yours, I hope this helps someone else who may face a similar problem.
While I think I know what you're trying to say. Why don't you just use an IF formula to evaluate everything instead of selecting a drop down for every row manually. You already had it partially solved using IF. Just need to add the criteria for a "Done" and an "NA"
=if(A1="date","Done",if(A1<"date","NA",if(something else until you have all your catergories))
Just going to piggyback off of Mark's response.
If you really needed your named formula to be the first selection in the list, you can setup your list with a leading comma like so:
,=UniqueName,NA,Done
That worked out for my use, and there was no null item listed in the Data Validation drop down. Hope that helps!
Is there any way to group a table by a text field, having in count that this text field is not always exactly the same?
Example:
select city_hotel, count(city_hotel)
from hotels, temp_grid
where st_intersects(hotels.geom, temp_grid.geom)
and potential=1
and part=4
group by city_hotel
order by (city_hotel) desc
The output I get is the expected, for example, City name and count:
"Vassiliki ";1
"Vassiliki";1
"Vassilias, Skiathos";1
"Vassilias";5
"Vasilikí";25
"Vasiliki";23
"Vasilias";1
But I'd want to group more this field, and get only one "Vasiliki" (or an array with all, this is not a problem) and a count of all the cells containing something similar between them.
I do not know if could this be possible. Maybe some function to text analysis or something similar?
SELECT COUNT(*), `etc` FROM table GROUP BY textfield LIKE '%sili%';
// The '%' is a SQL wildcard, which matches as many of any character as required.
You could do something like the above, choosing a word for the 'like' that best fits the spellings that your users have used.
Something that can help with that would be to do a
SELECT COUNT(*), textfield FROM table GROUP BY textfield ORDER BY textfield;
And selecting the most 'average' spelling for your words.
Otherwise you're starting to get into a bit of language processing, and for that you will want to write some code outside of SQL.
This would be something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damerau%E2%80%93Levenshtein_distance
To find word's that are the same within an arbitrary margin of error.
There is a MySQL implementation here that you should be able to transpose as needed

(Personal thoughts on the topic)
You Really Really want to think about limiting the input from users that can give you this issue in the first place. It's far far better to give the users a list of places to select from, than it is to push potentially 'dirty' information into your database. That eventually always winds up with you trying to clean the information at a later time. A problem that has kept many people employed for many years.
i'm a little bit struggling regarding how can i add more column in the costumer tabs in the admin page OSCommerce. As we can i only can display 8 customer in one page. How can i increase it ?
Thank you so much
I can't say for sure without seeing your catalog/admin/customers.php file... Is the following code in your customers.php file?
$customers_split = new splitPageResults($HTTP_GET_VARS['page'], MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS, $customers_query_raw, $customers_query_numrows);
If so, then check the value of MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS in your database. MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS is in the 'configuration" table. If it is set to 8 then adjust it to the number of customer rows you prefer to see in the customers table.
Keep in mind that MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS is used elsewhere and whatever value you adjust it too will be used everywhere MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS is used.
I have a tabular form which is updated throughout the year and i wanted to prevent users from editing certain rows. Currently the 'row type' is hard coded however I want the application admin to control which 'row types' are readable / write at certain times. My answered question, click here.
Currently a dynamic action is fired which prevents the rows that contain the type 'manager figure' and 'sales_target' being edited.
I have created a table with the three row types against each customer. Each status is set by a number: 0 to 3 (These i will decode into something meaningful for users).
0 - Row with that row type is read only.
1 - Users can enter into the row with that row type.
2 - row is read only with that row type.
3 - row is complete and set to read only.
I have created a new form (new tab) for the admin user to maintain each status.
Currently for Customer 'Big Toy Store' rows should be set as follows:
Manager Figure row should be read only (since set to 2)
Sales should be readable (since set to 0)
Sales target should be writable (since set to 1)
Please can i be pointed in the right direction, ive looked into jquery but struggling to work out how to pass the output of an sql query to it, so it can be used to determine which rows should be read only.

I'm not sure that a tabular form is a good format to work out this idea. As you can see, you require quite a bit of javascript to produce the results you want. Not only that, but this is all client side too, and thus there are some security risks to take into account. After all, I could just run some Firebug and disable or revert all things you did, and even change the numbers. Especially with sales figures, which is something you most definitely do want altered by everybody and is also the nature of your question, security is important.
There are more elegant ways here for you to control this, and not in the least to reduce the amount of highly customized javascript code. For example, you could do away with the tabular form, and instead implement a modal popup from an interactive report. Since the modal popup would be an iframe and thus a different page, you can create a form page. On a form page you have a lot more control over what happens to certain elements. You can specify conditions, read-only conditions, or use authorization schemes. All things you can not evidently use in a tabular form.
I'd think you'd do yourself a service by thinking this over again, and explore a different option. How much of a dealbreaker is using a tabular form actually?
You need the user. You need to know what group he belongs to, and then this has to be checked against the different statusses and rows have to be en/disabled. Do you really want this to happen on the client side?
I'm not saying it can't be done in a tabular form and javascript. It can, I'm just really doubting this is the correct approach!
