I have a confusing mystery...
Simple DIVIDE formula works correctly. However blank rows are not displayed.
I attempted a different method using IF, and now the blank row is correctly displayed.
However this line is only displayed if I include the IF formula (which gives a zero value I don't want).
Formula 1:
Completion % =
DIVIDE(SUM(Courses[Completed]),SUM(Courses[Attended]),BLANK())
Formula 2:
Completion % with IF =
IF(SUM(Courses[Attended])=0,0,DIVIDE(SUM(Courses[Completed]),SUM(Courses[Attended])))
With only the DIVIDE formula:
Including the IF formula:
It appears that Power BI is capable of showing this row without error, but only if I inlude the additional IF formula. I'm guessing it's because there is now a value (0) to display.
However I want to be able show all courses, including those that have no values, without the inaccurate zero value.
I don't understand why the table doesn't include these lines. Can anyone explain/help?
The point is very simple, by default Power BI shows only elements for which there is at least one non-blank measure.
The DIVIDE operator under-the-hood execute the following:
IF(ISBLANK(B), BLANK(), A / B))
You can change its behaviour by defining the optimal parameter in order to show 0 instead of BLANK:
DIVIDE(A, B, 0) will be translated in the following:
IF(ISBLANK(B), 0, A/B))
Proposed solution
Those mentioned avobe might all be possible solutions to your problem, however, my personal suggestion is to simply enable the option "show item with no data" in your visualization.
While DIVIDE(A, B, 0) will return zero when when B is zero or blank, I think a blank A will still return a blank.
One possibility is to simply append +0 (or prepend 0+) to your measure so that it always returns a numeric value.
DIVIDE ( SUM ( Courses[Completed] ), SUM ( Courses[Attended] ) ) + 0

I have a formula that do almost what I need. I'm trying to get a list of values with a condition depending about one value, is objetive 1 is equal or over to 80 show me the list of objetives equal or over 80. My formula is this one:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(('Product Prioritization Matrix'!C7:C >= 80), 'Product Prioritization Matrix'!B7:B,""))
My problem comes when I try to put this in just one cell in the last image will show what I need visualy.
The next images will show the sheets:
My formula
Expected result
I think a JOIN(... , FILTER( structure will work for this:
=JOIN(", ",FILTER(Sheet1!B:B,Sheet1!C:C>=80))
I want this formula to calculate a date based on input from two other dates. I first wrote it for a single cell and it gives the expected results but when I try to use ARRAYFORMULA it returns the wrong results.
I first use two if statements specifycing what should happen if either one of the inputs is missing. Then the final if statement calculates the date if both are present based on two conditions. This seems to work perfectly if I write the formula for one cell and drag it down.
=IF( (LEN(G19)=0);(U19+456);(IF((LEN(U19)=0) ;(G19);(IF((AND((G19<(U19+456));(G19>(U19+273)) ));(G19);(U19+456))))))
However, when I want to use arrayformula to apply it to the entire column, it always returns the value_if_false if neither cell is empty, regardless of whether the conditions in the if statement are actually met or not. I am specifically talking about the last part of the formula that calculates the date if both input values are present, it always returns the result of U19:U+456 even when the result should be G19:G. Here is how I tried to write the ARRAYFORMULA:
={"Date deadline";ARRAYFORMULA(IF((LEN(G19:G400)=0);(U19:U400+456);(IF((LEN(U19:U400)=0);
(G19:G400);(IF((AND((G19:G400<(U19:U400+456));(G19:G400>(U19:U400+273)) ));(G19:G400);(U19:U400+456)))))))}
I am a complete beginner who only learned to write formulas two weeks ago, so any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!
AND and OR are not compatible with ARRAYFORMULA
Replace them by * or +
Try
={"Date deadline";ARRAYFORMULA(
IF((LEN(G19:G400)=0),(U19:U400+456),
(IF((LEN(U19:U400)=0), (G19:G400),
(IF((((G19:G400<(U19:U400+456))*(G19:G400>(U19:U400+273)) )),(G19:G400),
(U19:U400+456)))
))
)
)}
Keep in mind you cannot use AND, OR operators in an arrayformula, so you must find an alternative method such as multiplying the values together and checking them for 0 or 1 (true*true=1)
I am gathering based on your formula's and work that you want to have the following:
If G19 is blank show U19 + 456
If U19 is blank show G19
If G19 is less than U19 + 456 but greater than U19 + 273 show G19
Otherwise show U19 + 456
I'm not too sure what you want to happen when both columns G and U are empty. Based on your current formula you are returning an empty cell + 456... but with this formula it returns an empty cell rather than Column U + 456
Formula
={"Date deadline";ARRAYFORMULA(TO_DATE(ARRAYFORMULA(IFS((($G19:$G400="")*($U19:$U400=""))>0,"",$G19:$G400="",$U19:$U400+456,$U19:$U400="",$G19:$G400,(($G19:$G400<$U19:$U400+456)*($G19:$G400>$U19:$U400+273))>0,$G19:$G400,TRUE,$U19:$U400+456))))}
The table is like the image:
I need to keep the NaN as empty but when I use IFERROR() and put blank() in the ValueifError it just deletes the entire row which I dont want. Is there any way to replace NaN with a blank space
I used the dax below:
oscar wins = SUM(Films[OscarWins])/SUM(Films[OscarNominations])
Try using the DIVIDE function instead of '/' operator.
Ex: Test = DIVIDE(Col1,Col2)
You can handle the case when denominator is 0 as below. This will simply check, if the denominator is 0, it will return BLANK(). Other case it will return the result from normal calculation.
oscar wins =
IF(
SUM(Films[OscarNominations]) = 0,
BLANK(),
SUM(Films[OscarWins])/SUM(Films[OscarNominations])
)
It is likely your SUM(Films[OscarNominations]) is returning 0, resulting in a divide by zero.
For your IFERROR fix, right click on a field value in your visual and select "Show items with no data".
Alternatively, on error, return 0. It really depends on how you want your audience to interpret the data. In reality, it is Not A Number (NaN)...
I have a spreadsheet set up with tv program titles in column B, the next 20 or so columns are tracking different information about that title. I need to count the number of blank cells in column R relating to the range in column B that contains titles (ie, up to the first blank row in column B.)
I can easily set up a formula to count the number of empty cells in a given range in column R, the problem is as I add more titles to the sheet I would have to keep updating the range in the formula [a simple =COUNTIF(R3:R1108, "")]. I've done a little googling of the problem but haven't quite found anything that fits the situation. I thought I would be able to get the following to work but I didn't fully understand what was going on with them and they weren't giving the expected results.
I've tried these formulas:
=ArrayFormula(sum(MIN("B3:B"&MIN(IF((R3:R)>"",ROW(B3:B)-1)))))
=ArrayFormula(sum(INDIRECT("B3:B"&MIN(IF((R3:R)>"",ROW(B3:B)-1)))))
And
=if(SUM(B3:B)="","",SUM(R3:R))
All of the above formulas give "0" as the result. Based on the COUNTIF formula I have set up it should be 840, which is a number I would expect. Currently, there are 1106 rows containing data and 840 is a reasonable number to expect in this situation.
Is this what you're looking for?
=COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT(CONCATENATE("R",3,":R",(3+COUNTA(B3:B)))))
This counts the number of non-blank rows in the B column (starting at B3), and uses that to determine the rows to perform COUNTBLANK in, in column R (starting at R3). CONCATENATE is a way to give it a range by adding strings together, and the INDIRECT allows for the range reference to be a string.
a proper way would be:
=ARRAYFORMULA(COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(3, 18, 4)&":"&
ADDRESS(MAX(IF(B3:B<>"", ROW(B3:B), )), 18, 4)))
or shorter:
=ARRAYFORMULA(COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT("R3:"&
ADDRESS(MAX(IF(B3:B<>"", ROW(B3:B), )), 18, 4))))
or shorter:
=ARRAYFORMULA(COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT("R3:R"&MAX(IF(B3:B<>"", ROW(B3:B), ))))
Problem =====>
Basically there are three .rrd which are generated for three departments.
From that we fetch three values (MIN, MAX, CURRENT) and print ins 3x3 format. There is a python script which does that.
eg -
Dept1: Min=10 Max=20 Cur=15
Dept2: Min=0 Max=10 Cur=5
Dept3: Min=10 Max=30 Cur=25
Now I want to add the values together (Min, Max, Cur) and print in one line.
eg -
Dept: Min=20 Max=60 Cur=45
Issue I am facing =====>
No matter what CDEF i write, I am breaking the graph. :(
This is the part I hate as i do not get any error message.
As far as I understand(please correct me if i am wrong) I definitely cannot store the value anywhere in my program as a graph is returned.
What would be a proper way to add the values in this condition.
Please let me know if my describing the problem is lacking more detail.
You can do this with a VDEF over a CDEF'd sum.
DEF:a=dept1.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE
DEF:b=dept2.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE
DEF:maxa=dept1.rrd:ds0:MAXIMUM
DEF:maxb=dept2.rrd:ds0:MAXIMUM
CDEF:maxall=maxa,maxb,+
CDEF:all=a,b,+
VDEF:maxalltime=maxall,MAXIMUM
VDEF:alltimeavg=all,AVERAGE
PRINT:maxalltime:Max=%f
PRINT:alltimeavg:Avg=%f
LINE:all#ff0000:AllDepartments
However, you should note that, apart form at the highest granularity, the Min and Max totals will be wrong! This is because max(a+b) != max(a) + max(b). If you dont calculate the min/max aggregate at time of storage, the granularity will be gone at time of display.
For example, if a = (1, 2, 3) and b = (3, 2, 1), then max(a) + max(b) = 6; however the maximum at any point in time is in fact 4. The same issue applies to using min(a) + min(b).
