I'm using powerbi desktop version and I've added a measure as a column in the table visual.
Enabled totals as well but unfortunately I'm not able to see the total value of that particular column to be displayed.
The same table contains several other measures for which the total appears but not for one particular column. This has data type decimal number.
Any suggestions?
TIA!!!

I have a project that involves building a dashboard using power bi. It is composed of a table with three columns: company name, total revenue, and revenue change %. These are the following requirements.
Create two slicers.
The first slicer must only slice the revenue column.
The second slicer must slice the revenue change % column.
When you slice the first column, the other column must remain static. This is also the same when you do it with the second slicer.
I have tried a lot of options like using the parameter field but I cannot find any solution for the requirements. I have known that a slicer affects the whole table, and not just one.
Do you have any suggestions as to what I will do to meet the requirement of the project?
I have 1 Fact Table Tbl_Import in my Pbix-file that is linked with an automatic generated calendartable.
I used a slicer and a table. The slicer is showing too much options. The first date in Tbl_Import is 16/12/2022, but in the slicer I have all the other months also.
Is there a way to limit the slicer options to the actual dates in the facttable?
I am using Power Bi Desktop (without Premium).
Yes. Create a measure which is
Measure = COUNTROWS(Tbl_Import)
Add the measure as a visual filter to the slicer with it restricted to showing a count > 0.
I am trying to recreate a Tableau table view in Power BI where I can compare two customizable date ranges and show the percent differences across metrics as a calculated row.
Reference Screenshot from Tableau
In practice, my table will have 3 rows: 1 row for each time period selected and a row for the percent difference. The percent difference row is a nice to have, not a need. All my table metrics are coming from the same source.
I also need to set up two different date slicers that each row of my table will reference. I've played around a little with setting up a separate date table for the comparison period to be selected from, following this thread: Comparing Data Across Date Ranges
The challenge now is showing two separate periods in the same table.
Appreciate any guidance!
I'm pretty new to Power BI. I'm unsure how to approach this.
I have one visualization that displays the ten most frequently bought products in a time frame that is set by a slicer. In another visualization, I display how those products have been selling over the past few years (this time frame is not determined by the slicer). I want to display only the ten products that come from the first visualization, not the ten most common over the time frame in the second visualization.
How can I accomplish this? The approach I have in mind (and I'm open to others) is to create a true/false column that changes with the first visualization. "True" would be for products that are frequently bought as determined by the first visualization in the slicer-determined time range, and the second visualization would only look at values with a "true" in that column. How can I create a column (or table, maybe?) that changes depending on a visualization?
Clarification: most of the pages will say Top10 ... Actually, the measure used was a simple Top5 that includes products with the same number of orders than the 5th product. Therefore, to avoid dealing with larger images, 7 products will be seen but it is a Top5 ranking. The idea is you can replace it with your custom TopN measure.
What I understood:
The simplification of your model plus the disconnected help table would be:
I have one visualization that displays the ten most frequently bought
products in a time frame that is set by a slicer.
The Date slicer belongs to the Dates table in the Data model.
The table viz represents the number of rows in the sales table in the
current context (for each product within the Date range).
The table viz is sorted according to the [#Rows] measure in descending
order.
The table viz only presents the TopN products even without the presence
of the [#Rows] measure due to the presence of the [TopOrders]
measure within Filters on this visual. [TopOrders] is 1.
On the second page you create:
A slicer with the Dates[Date] column (the same one used on the
previous page).
A matrix with Products[ProductName] on the rows, HDates[Year] on
the columns, and a measure on values.
From the View tab, you select the Sync Slicers option.
Inside the Sync Slicers pane:
In the Sync column, check the boxes related to the necessary pages.
In the Display column uncheck the box that contains the over
years report.
So far all we have done is pass the time frame context from page 1 to page 2.
Since the TopN context depends on the time frame context, we can now use the [TopOrders] measure as a Filters on this visual in the matrix. Again, [TopOrders] is 1.
Why do the numbers differ between rows and not between columns?
Also, in this example, the Sales table only has information up to 12/31/2020 but the visualization shows an additional year and the Sales[Amount] values for each order is $1 so that [#Orders] and [SalesAmount] are the same for easy comparison.
HDates is not related to the model and for each combination of HDates[Year]-Products[ProductName], the [SalesAmount] measure is using the information coming from the previously hidden slicer and the respective Products[ProductName] because the information coming from HDates[Year] has no effect yet.
In order to complete this exercise, it only remains to modify the [SalesAmount] measure in such a way that it removes the filter on the time frame (Dates[Date]) and it recognizes HDates[Year] as Dates[Year].
SalesAmount :=
CALCULATE(
SUM(Sales[Amount]),
ALL(Dates),
TREATAS(VALUES(HDates[Year]),Dates[Year])
)
And this is the final result.
I hope it works for someone or the idea can be improved.
Very new to Power BI here! How can I get the total/sum of the entries of a column that is displayed in my report dashboard.
I'm interested to get the total only from the column in the report, not from the table itself,
I tried SUM in column settings, but I get on that an astronomical number in billions, while the true number should be around 200K when choosing Do Not Summarize.
