Sum up hierarchy not working (with sample)

Hello, I would like to sum up measure 2 children into measure 3 parent. Measure 3 should return 1.48, insteaed of 0.83, for the first row.   Below the formulas: Measure 2 = ABS(CALCULATE([FCST ...

    hi MagikJukas 

     

    Please see if this is what you want, As the below post said, I wonder why would you do that.

     

    Measure 2 = SWITCH(
                        TRUE(),
                        ISINSCOPE(Forecast[Material]), ABS(([FCST Acc.])-CALCULATE([FCST Acc.],REMOVEFILTERS(Forecast[Series],Forecast[Material])))
                        )
     
    Measure 3 =
    VAR _SelSeries = SELECTEDVALUE(Forecast[Series])
    VAR _FCSTAccTotal = CALCULATE([FCST Acc.],REMOVEFILTERS(Forecast[Series],Forecast[Material]) )
    VAR _Sum = SUMX(VALUES(Forecast[Material]), ABS([FCST Acc.] - _FCSTAccTotal) )

    RETURN SWITCH(
            TRUE(),
            NOT(ISINSCOPE(Forecast[Material])) && ISINSCOPE(Forecast[Series]), _Sum
            )

    Hello talespin 

    thanks for your reply.

    Indeed, your solution work with the sample I provided.

     

    However, when testing in the original dataset, it was not working.

    the solution was to change

    REMOVEFILTERS(Forecast[Series],Forecast[Material]) 

    with 

    REMOVEFILTERS(Forecast[Material]),ALLSELECTED(Forecast))

     

    By doing so, the measure keeps the selected filters expect for the Material, which is what I wanted.

     

    thanks!

Hello Anonymous , thank you for your reply.

 

I see this as an option. However, I wish to find a solution without creating a new table.

Isn't it possible to solve it with a some kind of measure?

 

thanks

Hi MagikJukas ,
Since you're using a MEASURE on top of your matrix, and it doesn't seem feasible to use a MEASURE to get the sum of the children of another MEASURE and display it on the parent, you can apply the steps above.

Best regards,

Albert He

    ok, although I find it strange it is not possible.

     

    let's see if the community finds an alternative solution.

    thanks!
