I am filtering the data based on the current logged in user using the below query, now I would like to return some of the columns associated with that user - how to achieve that ?
In the below case I get only 1 value - I tried to return a complete row but it throws me the error "Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value" - any other way to show multiple columns?
CurrentUserData =
VAR CurrentUserState = CALCULATE(MAX(TimeReport[UserPrincipalName]),FILTER(TimeReport, TimeReport[UserPrincipalName] = USERPRINCIPALNAME()))
RETURN
IF(
SELECTEDVALUE(TimeReport[UserPrincipalName]) = CurrentUserState,
Values(TimeReport[Neukunden_Akquise_Produkte])
)

Thanks

Measure1
WhoIsWatching = USERPRINCIPALNAME()
(that is email style usernames, or you can use USERNAME() for windows style users)
Measure 2
FilterByViewer = IF(selectedvalue(table[email])=[WhoIsWatching],1,0)
Drag Measure 2 as a filter for visual, select advanced filtering and set it to
"Show items when value IS 1"
Dax formula without If condition works fine, but as soon as I add an IF condition rows start multiplying. I believe it's doing Cartesian Product.
My requirement is simple. I need to show only those rows in which Sickness[Start_Date]>LASTDATE(Test[Date])
The complete formula is -
Measure =
var val = CALCULATE(MAX(Sickness[Start_Date]),FILTER(Sickness,Sickness[Start_Date]>LASTDATE(Test[Date])),ALL())
return
IF(val = BLANK(),0,1)
I have 3 separate tables Emp_data, Test and Sickness.
To replicate this scenario, Please follow the below steps:
1st Step : Create table Emp_data
Emp_data = DATATABLE("Emp_no",INTEGER,"Name",STRING,{{101,"A"},
{102,"B"},
{103,"C"},
{104,"D"},
{105,"E"},
{106,"F"},
{107,"G"},
{108,"I"},
{109,"J"},
{110,"K"},
{111,"L"},
{112,"N"},
{113,"M"},
{114,"O"},
{115,"P"},
{116,"Q"},
{117,"R"},
{118,"S"},
{119,"T"},
{120,"U"}
})
create table : Test
Test = DATATABLE("Emp_No",INTEGER,"Date",DATETIME,"Result",INTEGER,{{101,"3/10/2020",1},
{101,"3/13/2020",2},
{102,"3/11/2020",1},
{103,"3/12/2020",2},
{104,"3/13/2020",1},
{105,"3/14/2020",1},
{106,"3/15/2020",2},
{107,"3/16/2020",1},
{108,"4/20/2020",1},
{109,"4/21/2020",2},
{110,"4/22/2020",2},
{111,"4/23/2020",1},
{112,"4/24/2020",1},
{113,"4/25/2020",2},
{114,"4/26/2020",1},
{115,"4/27/2020",2},
{116,"5/5/2020",1},
{117,"5/5/2020",1},
{118,"5/5/2020",1},
{119,"5/5/2020",1},
{120,"5/5/2020",2}
})
Create table Sickness
Sickness = DATATABLE("Emp_no",INTEGER,"Start_Date",DATETIME,"End_Date",DATETIME,"Sickness_Code",INTEGER,{{101,"2/12/2020","2/12/2020",30},
{101,"3/10/2020","3/15/2020",50},
{101,"3/20/2020","3/30/2020",50},
{101,"4/5/2020","4/10/2020",40},
{102,"3/11/2020","3/11/2020",50},
{107,"3/1/2020","3/2/2020",30},
{107,"3/15/2020","3/20/2020",50},
{107,"3/21/2020","3/31/2020",40},
{112,"4/20/2020","4/30/2020",50},
{112,"5/1/2020","5/15/2020",50},
{116,"4/1/2020","4/15/2020",30},
{116,"5/3/2020","5/15/2020",50},
{116,"5/16/2020","5/26/2020",50},
{116,"5/27/2020","5/29/2020",40}}
)
Second Step is to create relationship between these 3 tables. Emp_Data and Test table have one to many relationship. I changed the filter direction to BOTH. Thinking may be this will resolve the issue. Create relation many to many between the tables Test and Sickness. The image is attached
The output is as follows :
If I remove the IF condition my out is what I need :
Can someone help me in understanding this behavior of Power BI. This looks very strange. Why row count is increasing after applying IF condition. Thanks in advance
It's because you assigned a 0 value to all blank values in your Sickness data table. Once your remove the if statement, Power BI only shows data rows that do not return a blank value.
To fix your issue try this updated meassure:
Measure =
VAR val = CALCULATE(MAX(Sickness[Start_Date]),FILTER(Sickness,Sickness[Start_Date]>LASTDATE(Test[Date])),ALL())
VAR OneZero = IF(ISBLANK(val),0,1)
RETURN
IF(HASONEVALUE(Sickness[Emp_no],OneZero)
I am working on a Viewership table which tells which customer watches which asset. Based on the asset filter, I need to display the customers who watched the show & customers who didn't watched the show. below is my example table
If the asset_id selected as 1 in the slicer, the desired output will be as below
I have tried creating a cross-join table with asset_id and customer_id , but that approach taking much time with large data. Request the experts here to suggest the best optimal solution to achieve this.
First, create a new table "Asset":
This table contains unique assets, and we will use it to create a slicer that affects DAX measure but does not affect the visual (table). To achieve that, the Asset table must be disconnected from the Viewership table (no relationships).
In your viewership table, I just renamed "asset" to "asset_id", to be consistent:
Next, create a measure:
Status =
VAR Selected_Asset = SELECTEDVALUE(Asset[asset_id])
VAR Customer_Asset = SELECTEDVALUE(Viewership[asset_id])
RETURN
IF(Customer_Asset = Selected_Asset, "Watched", "Not Watched")
Result:
Slicer here is created from the "Asset" table, and table is a table visual with customer_id and asset_id from the Viewership table (set them as "don't summarize" values). I turned off "total", assuming you don't need it.
This design requires to set Asset slicer to "single selection" mode, to make sure that you are only getting one value from it. If you want the model to work with multi-select slicer, change DAX measure as follows:
Multi Status =
VAR Selected_Assets = ALLSELECTED(Asset[asset_id])
VAR Customer_Asset = SELECTEDVALUE(Viewership[asset_id])
RETURN
IF(Customer_Asset IN Selected_Assets, "Watched", "Not Watched")
Result:
Edit:
To make it work at the customer level:
Customer Status =
VAR Selected_Assets = ALLSELECTED(Asset[asset_id])
VAR Customer_Assets = VALUES(Viewership[asset_id])
VAR Assets_Watched = COUNTROWS(INTERSECT(Customer_Assets, Selected_Assets))
RETURN
IF(Assets_Watched > 0, "Watched", "Not Watched")
Result:
Explanation: store selected assets in a table variable. Then, store assets visible per customer in another table variable. Find an intersect of the two tables (what they have in common), and count intersect rows. If none - not watched, otherwise watched. If you want, you can actually display the number of movies watched (just return "Assets_Watched" instead of IF statement).
