I have a problem with incorrect display data after i created a calculation group in tabular editor. Please watch the 1srt pic.
This is sliser. It contains a list of calculation items. When I change the slise item 2 cards change their valuses. Histograms should change, but not cards.
For example one of the cards has a mesure not from calculation group. And it doesnt works correctly. Correct information = 23.13%
There are columns of table. I can choose a measure, but cant chose colums for get something like sum('table'[column]). Column doesnt fit in "Field" (2).
On second pic i show what I did.
There are some calculation items contains smth like DIVIDE(SUM('Table'[column1]), SUM('Table'[column2])) ect.
The measure for activate slise returning the calculations.
The list of calculation items names that i use for switcher.
I know all the problems is in SELECTEDMEASURE() function. But I dont know how to fix it. Also i can share a file it just test task for work.

I have data like this:
It comes from REDCap, and as you may be able to tell, the data in the far right columns are repeated variables about each "protocol_title" (the far left column). I.e. "Love it" and "I want a disc instead" are both about "study 2"
I've imported the data into Power Bi and currently I have this:
What I'd like is for the top left visual to only have one row per study (with columns such as principal investigator and method of image transfer, i.e. columns that had data in the first row) and a visual on the lower left with all the right-most columns.
By switching the top visual from a table to a matrix I can kinda accomplish this:
But it adds a bunch of unnecessary columns. As an alternative I thought I could add a filter to the top visual that would filter to "redcap_event_name"=="protocol_information" which would only be those top rows.... but given the visuals are linked, if I do that it removes everything from the bottom visual. I'd like to keep the link between the visuals so that if I select "study2" in the top visual, it'll highlight relevant study 2 information in the bottom one.
So my question is: what's the best approach for making the visuals I want? Are there special settings for visuals? Do I need to do something to the data first in the query? How should I go about this?
You might want to rework you data structure. At first glance, your flat source table could be parsed into two tables :
Protocol
Survey
This can be done in PowerQuery.
For Protocol :
Select columns A to R.
Filter on redcap_event (?) starts by "protocol_info"
Delete empty rows
For Survey
Select columns A (to keep the protocol ID and be able to link both tables), T and U.
Filter on redcap_event (?) starts by "survey"
Delete empty rows.
You should end up with the two table with a one-to-many relationship between Protocol[Protocol_ID] (column A) and Survey[Protocol_ID] (same)
And it should make everything much easier: visuals, calculations...
I'm trying to create a line chart visualization that shows a constantly increasing sum over time. I think this would be called a cumulative total or a running total, but most of the questions I've seen on here have been about showing a total at the bottom of a matrix, subtotals, etc. Instead, I just want to visualize the units from the previous date being added to the current date, and so on. Not sure if this would be a custom column in the dataset or if there is an existing function for this.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Goto Quick Measures, in the "Calculation" dropdown, select "Totals - Running Total", pull in Base Value (what you want to aggregate) and Field (probably your calender) and here you are!
I've trying out Power BI to solve some visualization problem in my organization and I've been working on desktop version of Power BI to try out its features.
I'm stuck at few issues and cannot find our way out of this.This is a sample view I've been trying to create:
Figure 1:
1
We've a dataset containing Product Opinion across gender, Age Group, Geography etc. and we want to pivot the opinion across different parameters as shown above.But when we use Matrix view of Power BI and add two parameters in columns, it creates a drill down view as shown below:
Figure 2: 2
On adding multiple fields in the column section we get an option to move down to next hierarchy as shown below:
Figure 3:3
Although we have the option to move down to hierarchy ,we are unable to show then side by side as we've shown in Figure 1.
Is there a way we can get the visualization as given in Figure 1 ?
Also, Currently the columns and rows are automatically sorted alphabetically. Is there a way we can adjust the column and row position as per our needs?
To sort the rows in a custom order, you will have to create an index table. The below link walks you through the steps involved:
http://www.excelnaccess.com/custom-sorting-in-power-bi/
Now, to achieve the visualization you are looking for, the only way I can think of is to create two matrix visualizations (One for gender and other for age group) and place them in such a way, that it gives the illusion of the same table. There might be a better way to do this, but I these workarounds work just fine. Hope this helps.
I am not sure if my title is correct one, but here is the deal:
I want to make a matrix visualization in Power Bi Desktop. I have fields: ARTICLE_ID and ARTICLE_NAME.
I would like to have both those fields in COLUMNS position in matrix data view. And I need them to be in one row, no need to drill down... because it is one and the same thing...
I need to have ARTICLE_ID and ARTICLE_NAME as two separate columns on the same level. without drilling. And also, I dont want to use concatenation or merging into some third column. is that possible? thanks
1) I started with this sample data.
2) I created a matrix and configured it as shown in the image below.
3) I clicked the forked arrows to show all levels.
4) In the Rows section of the formatting pane, I turned off "Stepped layout".
5) In the Subtotals section, I turned off "Row subtotals".
I don't know if this is exactly what you are looking for, but I think it is the closest I can come up with since you don't want to concatenate the columns together.
If they are from the same table then just drag and drop them into the columns.
The way a matrix works from my understanding in PowerBI is;
Rows are just the headings/categories of the values.
You might need to also go into the format tab, values, and make sure show on rows is on.
For example, let's say our value headings are rainy days and sunny days.
Your columns are months.
The rows will be the 2 categories.
The values will be the values.
As concatenation and "&" does not work in Power BI directquery you can use the below one:
[New_column_name] = if((table_name[column_name]="A" && table_name[column_name]="B"),"AB","NA")

I'm wanting to set up a Calc sheet that will offer me stock reorder points on items that sell at a fast rate. In other words, using =Wanted In Stock # - (cell quantity) lets me know if I need to reorder the item or not. I have set up an example of this to further explain what I'm looking for.
The cells in Red tell me how many I need to order to maintain stock on hand wanted. Cells in Yellow show me I have plenty of stock in store, thus nothing to order.
The Yellow cells are just used for show and do not need anything else. The Red cells are what I'm wanting to get complex functions/formulas for. I'm wanting to do 3 things, if at all possible:
Have the Reorder columns hidden unless the item needs to be ordered. Though this isn't essential if it cannot be done
When items need to be reordered, have the column cell show with order count and have red background. Again not essential if cannot be done
Once finished with inventory on hand and reorder cells showing, then I would like a formula to print off a sheet showing the color, item # (306, 1041, etc), order quantity with red background. Those not needing to be reordered wouldn't appear on final order sheet. This on the other hand is really what I'm looking for
Is this at all possible? Or does anyone have a better suggestion?
It sounds like this report is what you are looking for:
To do this, first arrange the data into a single table:
Then select the table (cells A1 to D9) and go to Data -> Pivot Table -> Create, pressing OK to use the current selection. Drag "Color" to Row Fields, "Item" to Column Fields, and "Reorder" to Data Fields. (For LibreOffice, if it says "Data" under Column Fields, select it and press the Delete key to remove it.) Expand "More" ("Options" in LibreOffice), uncheck Total Columns and Total Rows. Then Press OK.
To hide everything that doesn't need to be reordered, right-click on the cell that says "Sum - Reorder" and choose Filter.... Under Field Name select "Reorder". Under Condition select ">", and set value to 0. Then press OK.
To practice using pivot tables, there is an example at http://dwmallisk.blogspot.com/2015/01/using-libreoffice-calc-to-create-pivot.html.
For more complex reports, it might be helpful to link your spreadsheet to the Base component of OpenOffice.
