filter data by groups
Maybe it is an very obvious question, but I'm not sure how to search for it (in english) so I'll give it a try here.
I have a table with invoices with sales for a file (every file has an amount of sales).
File invoiceid Sales Pax
1 1 1000 2
1 2 500 2
2 3 500 2
3 4 500 1
3 5 1000 1
4 6 1500 2
4 7 1000 2
What I want is an count of files grouped by the total sales amount:
Sales #Files
0-1000 1
1000-2000 2
>2000 1
What is the best way to achieve this?

Hi Jordi
You can do this with the help of a small PARAMETER table

Thanks for the hint Zubair_Muhammad
Added the Parameter table, and added a calculated column with this formula: (I want to count the Files within the parameters)
Category = VAR Sales = SUM('Sales'[sales]) RETURN CALCULATE ( DISTINCTCOUNT('Sales'[File] ); FILTER ( Parameters; Sales >= Parameters[Start] && Sales < Parameters[End] ) )But that return the value "1"
Table "Parameters"
(Column "Index" is added for ordering purposes)
