problem with all except
- 10 months ago
Hi ahmedshalabyy12,
The issue here that is you are applying this to two different tables which is causing unexpected behavior
Your current measure:
Rec_Amount = CALCULATE ( [Total Amount (Sum)], ALLEXCEPT ( Organizations, Organizations[Organization Name] ), ALLEXCEPT ( Terms, Terms[TermYears] ) )This is saying "Remove all filters except Organization Name from the Organizations table AND remove all filters except TermYears from the Terms table (This creates conflicting filter contexts)
You need to use ALLEXCEPT on the fact table (or use a different approach) to ignore the TermYears filter while keeping the Organization Name filter
So you can use ALLEXCEPT on the fact table (if possible)
Rec_Amount = CALCULATE ( [Total Amount (Sum)], ALLEXCEPT ( Fact_Table, Organizations[Organization Name] ) )Or use REMOVEFILTERS for more precise control
Rec_Amount = CALCULATE ( [Total Amount (Sum)], Organizations[Organization Name] = SELECTEDVALUE(Organizations[Organization Name]), REMOVEFILTERS ( Terms ) )You can also ALL with VALUES (most reliable)
Rec_Amount = CALCULATE ( [Total Amount (Sum)], ALL ( Terms ), VALUES ( Organizations[Organization Name] ) )This will:
Remove any filtering from the Terms table (including TermYears)
Preserve the current Organization Name filter
Show the total $8M for (Black Futures Lab) in every row of your matrix
if this post helps, then I would appreciate a thumbs up and mark it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.
The problem is that you are not removing the filter nor from Terms nor from Organization name
If you want to see 8M everywhere, you need to remove those filters, so please use this code (or a slight variation we might fix later)
Rec_Amount =
CALCULATE (
[Total Amount (Sum)],
REMOVEFILTERS( Organizations[Organization Name] ),
REMOVEFILTERS( Terms_years )
)
If you want to remove filters from other columns, from those tables, you can list them in the rremovefilters call afer a comma
If this helped, please consider giving kudos and mark as a solution
