We have been conducting a survey within our business and I will shortly be preparing the results to share with a number of internal customers.
The number of survey respondents is around 700, so I want to allow the people looking at the reports to be able to filter the data to identify trends according to the demographic and organisational groups identified within the report (sample data below).
What I am looking to do is present the information in a way that prevents the users from using a combination of the slicers to identify the responses of specific individuals.
I wanted to obscure the results for cases where the group of people selected is less than 5 individuals and created the following measure:
[Anonymised Rowcount]:=if(COUNTROWS(('Table1'))<5,0,[RowCount])
However the results it gives aren't quite what I need:
I want all the values of [Anonymised Rowcount] to be zero when the combination of slicers gives me less than 5 active rows in the table.
I'm getting a zero in any columns when the count for that column falls below 5.
NOT the desired result!
I've tried various combinations of ALL() and ALLSELECTED(), but I've not yet managed to come up with a correct combination the will give me a count of the rows in the table that ignores the column, but respects the slicer selections. My attempts so far have either given me every row in the table, ignoring the columns and slicers, or only the selected rows within each column heading.
EDIT:
Main question resolved
I've found the Solution using:
[Anonymised Rowcount]:=if(COUNTROWS(ALL('Table 1'[Question 1]))<5,0,[RowCount])
Bonus Question: Does anyone have a more elegant way of obscuring the results of small groups than just setting all the responses to zero.

I'm trying to refine a report dashboard utilized at my workplace. The process that I'm trying to automate is;
Data is generated into a worksheet via a query table (Worksheet called Imported Data)
From that table, i'm wanting to look at 3 separate columns for 3 conditions
Those conditions are a) Team, B) Frequency, C) Month and D) Yes (from a ye/no option)
Providing all those conditions are met Eg, Team A, Monthly, February, Yes, I want Excel to produce a response of Compliant, otherwise say Non-compliant, onto another worksheet called Governance Complaince
The response for this is on a separate work sheet.
The main query table that is generated has around 8 Team choices, 6 Frequency options, with 12 month and then the 2 (obviously) yes/no options.
I've tried a few different formulas to get this to work, but I only ever get the True value from the formula.
I Feel that maybe the formula is stopping once it sees the first Team A selection (Which by nature of how the query table is generated, is the first result in the Team column) and then ignoring the remainder of the formula, despite my best attempts.
The current formula I'm using is
=IF(COUNTIFS('Imported Data'!A:A,"Team A")+COUNTIFS('Imported Data'!C:C,"Monthly")+COUNTIFS('Imported Data'!F:F,"February")+COUNTIFS('Imported Data'!I:I,"Yes")>1,"Compliant","Non-compliant")
I've tried
=IF(COUNTIFS('Imported Data'!A:A,"Team A")+COUNTIFS('Imported Data'!C:C,"Monthly")+COUNTIFS('Imported Data'!F:F,"February")+COUNTIFS('Imported Data'!I:I,"Yes")=ROWS('Imported Data'!A1:Z500),"Compliant","Non-compliant")
=IF(AND('Imported Data'!A:A,"Team A")+AND('Imported Data'!C:C,"Monthly")+AND('Imported Data'!F:F,"February")+AND('Imported Data'!I:I,"Yes"),"Compliant","Non-compliant")
=IF(AND('Imported Data'!A:A,"Team A")+AND('Imported Data'!C:C,"Monthly")+AND('Imported Data'!F:F,"February")+AND('Imported Data'!I:I,"Yes")=ROWS('Imported Data'!A1:Z500),"Compliant","Non-compliant")
All I get is a #Value error, or only the Compliant value, despite any changes made to the data the formula references.
All the cells are text, there is no numerical data in the tables. The formula is placed into a cell in another worksheet called Governance Compliance
Essentially I want the formula to be able to look at the query table data, output the Ture/False value into a monthly tracker (This formula will be replicated over about 26 different audits for 8 teams) automatically, cutting down on manual processing. I've been able to get the date to then look at a quarterly array of teams and return a complaint/non-complaint result into another worksheet fine using
=IF(COUNTIF('Governance Compliance'!E11:G19,"Compliant")=ROWS('Governance Compliance'!E11:G19),"Yes","No")
And I thought that my 3 condition if statement to get the compliant result into the Governance Compliance worksheet would just be an expansion of conditions on this formula, but I am clearly wrong.
The query table is sorted alphabetically by Team if that makes a difference.
I will do my best to explain this correctly. I have a data set that has 4 category columns (Date, Store, Provider, Pick Location) and 4 value columns (Total Orders, Total Deliveries, Accepted Deliveries, Assigned Deliveries). Please see the image here:
The two total columns should be grouped by date and store and have the same value regardless of the provider or pick location - There is the potential to see the same value up to 4 times depending on the category combination. The final two value columns will be different for every line and should not be grouped.
The issue I am facing is to be able to:
Sum up the total columns by the date/store group to ensure there is no duplication
Sum up the other value columns NOT by the date/store group without affecting the totals
Have the total columns be only affected by the Date and Store slicer (NOT the Provider and Location)
Have the other values filter as normal for all slicers
Ultimately calculate percentages of "total" based on the affected slicers.
Here is a visual summary of what I would be trying to accomplish:
Currently, I have been able to create a "sum of averages" to allow the total values to display correctly based on the date and store, but am unable to get it to ignore the provider and location slicer:
total_pro_orders_f = var _table=SUMMARIZE(md_pbi_datafile,md_pbi_datafile[date], md_pbi_datafile[store_number],"_orders", averagex(md_pbi_datafile, md_pbi_datafile[total_pro_orders]))
RETURN
calculate(SUMX(_table,[_orders]), REMOVEFILTERS(md_pbi_datafile[lpName],md_pbi_datafile[transaction_is_sourced]))
I have tried all the different ignore filter commands I could find but no matter what I do I cannot get the totals to stay the same regardless of provider or location.
Does anyone have any advice on how to accomplish this?
Thank you all!
I have to divide two measures from two different tables. I have created a measure in Table A & created measure-2 in Table B.
When I use matrix visual in Power BI by taking date field in columns and region in rows (for table A&B), I can see the both table values are correct as I am expected.
Ex: Table A 2017-Q1 value by measure1 is 29.2, Table B 2017-Q1 value by measure1 is 2.9.
I have to divide both measures and I need to show the value (divide%) in TableA along with Measure1.
Unfortunately I tried in multiple ways by forming relationship b/w two tables also, But not getting the expected result i.e., 29.2/2.9 we should get 10% but instead of that getting 3%.
Without knowing your data model, it's hard to give a reasonable answer.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/related-function-dax
Your best change of understanding what happens is to learn up on relations, and changes them when needed. The documentation is a great starting point.
Unrelated data plotted in a visual of different data will always aggregate since there is no relation to split your values. The value of 3% is correct, your assumption that you want 10% as an outcome is not valid for your situation.
If you link the dates of table A and the dates of table B to a seperate Calendar, it all would work.
Working with unemployment data, and I want to count the number of weeks that a client has received benefits during the last 52 weeks.
I have a dataset with many tables which are all connected via the client number in a fact table. In the fact table the client number occurs for every week of the year in one column, another column shows the type of benefits (if any) received in the current week. So I have a long format.
The other two relevant tables contains
A: List of client number appearing only once per client, but no information about benefits received or week number.
B: List of benefits
Tried counting the rows in my fact table while filtering so as only to do so for the specific benefit I am interested in, but I can't make it work so far.
Weeks on benefit A =
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(FactDream[DimDreamBorger]);
DimDreamYdelse[dagpenge] = 1)
sample data
I just need a table showing how many weeks the individual client has received a specific benefit, but I keep getting a total sum of the weeks that all the clients have received the benefit.
Best would be if you add the following measure:
=CountRows(YourTable)
Put this measure into a chart visual. Then add a filter visual and put your Benefit column into the filter visual.
This way you can filter after your benefits, which you are interested, and see the result in the chart.
I am using Visual Studios BIDS to modify an existing OLAP cube.
In SSMS: There is an underlying fact table (FactTableMain) with a very fine grain that contains 10 different measures to track the status of an application (they act almost like a flag). The measures either have the individual's ID value or are NULL.
In SSAS Visual Studio OLAP:
There are 10 measure groups. Each measure group is based on a DSV named query that selects 1 of the FactTableMain measures where MeasureName IS NOT NULL.
A drill action for each measure group with only the PersonName and PersonID columns being returned.
The drills for each measure group:
shows duplicates (as not all fact table columns are return columns for the drill)
Do not return the expected number of rows that the measure count displays
I have tried:
multiple MDX conditions using filter and distinct on the drill through action, but they either make no difference or the action disappears entirely
Create a junk drill dimension that selects the distinct IDs from the FactTableMain and set that as the only return column for the drill through action (made no difference to drill through return rows)
Creating New (Standard) Action as a rowset and dataset, using MDX action expressions
I think I need a New (Standard) Action with an MDX Action expression with these properties:
Target type = Cells
Target object = All cells
Actions Content Type = Rowset
My current MDX query does return results, but only for the first measure's overall total and it is not formatted correctly at all. It does not work if I select a different measure in the client application, rerun the query, and drill again. I have searched and searched, but I am out of ideas and sitting in a black pit of doom. :(
My current MDX query is:
WITH
SET [person] AS
NonEmpty([person].[person].[person])
MEMBER CurrentMeasure AS
[Measures].CurrentMember
SELECT
NonEmpty
(
Filter
(
[Quarter].[Quarter].[Quarter].MEMBERS
,[Quarter].[Quarter].CurrentMember
)
) ON COLUMNS
,(
[person]
,NonEmpty([person].[person ID].[ID])
) ON ROWS
FROM [Applications];
Goal:
I would ultimately like the drill action to be dynamic enough to know the current measure the user is selecting and filtered by the user's dimension selection for rows/columns.
Questions:
Is there a way to filter distinct or non empty rows using a condition for the original drill through action? I know there are drill limitations, but is there something that would workaround the drill's limitations?
How can I create a Standard Rowset action that is dynamically to the user's selections (my goal).
Any ideas?
A URL action type is not an option for our business needs.
EDIT: I removed everything unnecessary from the DSV and am selecting only distinct rows. Each ID can have more than 1 application and an application can have more than 1 area of interest. Now the drills return 1 row per ID, application, and area of interest. We only want the drill to return the distinct IDs, no matter the number of applications or areas of interest. I am not sure where to go from here. Can I filter our the application number and/or areas of interest dimensions in the drill?
I believe that you are going too fast too quick.
The DSV should show the data without duplication in the browser. If it's not, go back to the DSV and check what it is. Maybe create a view (an Indexed view) on top of the fact table, so you can make sure that you query only the data that you want. Also: are you sure that your dimensions are linked correctly? Sometimes duplication appears due to dimensions not being set up correctly with wrong keys for linkage.
In MDX:
If you create a Calculation in the Calculation tab you can do drill in it. Otherwise, you'll have to write the correct MDX query each and every time.
HTH.
See the very last example at:
http://asstoredprocedures.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Drillthrough&referringTitle=Home
You have to deploy that ASSP assembly to SSAS. It is used to pickup the current context on all attributes during execution of the action. But it will return totals by employee for whatever measure the user launched the action from.
"select {[Measures].CurrentMember} on 0, NON EMPTY [person].[person].[person].Members on 1 from (select (" + ASSP.CurrentCellAttributes([Measures].CurrentMember) + ") on 0 from [Application])"
