backfill data by group - dax question
In powerpivot, I have a table have a flag by group only when the status is complete. There is only one flag per group currently. I want to back fill the flag for the whole group for each status. Below is a small example of the table that I have and the table that I want. How would i write this with dax?
here is the table that I have:
Group Status Flag
A Pending
A Pending
A Complete Y
B Started
B Pending
B Complete B
C Pending
C Complete
D Complete Y
E Pending
F Complete
G Started
G Complete B
here is the table I want
Group Status Flag
A Pending Y
A Pending Y
A Complete Y
B Started B
B Pending B
B Complete B
C Pending
C Complete
D Complete B
E Pending
F Complete
G Started B
G Complete B
HI sroy
Try adding this calculated column
New Column = CALCULATE ( FIRSTNONBLANK ( Table1[Flag], 1 ), FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Group] ), Table1[Status] = "Complete" ) )

In that case, simply :smileytongue:
New Column = CALCULATE ( FIRSTNONBLANK ( Table1[Flag], 1 ), ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Group] ) )
