SELECTCOLUMNS does not return correct values from existing table

Hello,

 

I have an existing table called OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL. so i have created new table called PARETO to make more lean table.

 

To create PARETO table i used below formula

 

PARETO = SELECTCOLUMNS(OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL;"currency";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[Currency Selection];"year";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[Only Year];"month";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[MONTH];"scenario";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[Fiili/Bütçe];"entity";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[FIRMA];"seller";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[SAT_AD];"customer no";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[CUSTOMER_NO];"customer";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[MUS_AD];"product";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[DESCRIPTION];"BU";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[BU];"volume (ton)";[Volume (ton)];"Turnover";[TurnoverPV];"FP1";[FP1];"FP2";[FP2])

 

at the end of the results some fields does not return correct values. for instance some entities returns corrrect values and some returns totally nonsense figures

 

what else should i do?

    PARETO = SELECTCOLUMNS(OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL;
"currency";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[Currency Selection];
"year";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[Only Year];
"month";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[MONTH];
"scenario";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[Fiili/Bütçe];
"entity";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[FIRMA];
"seller";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[SAT_AD];
"customer no";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[CUSTOMER_NO];
"customer";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[MUS_AD];
"product";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[DESCRIPTION];
"BU";OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL[BU];
"volume (ton)";[Volume (ton)];
"Turnover";[TurnoverPV];
"FP1";[FP1];
"FP2";[FP2]
)

    Does all columns produce inconsistant values or can you see any pattern?

      Hi tex628

       

      Not all columns returns incosistent figures but especially some entities and some products returns incosistent figures

       

      For instance G entity returns -7099 tons whereas it should be -3825

       

      Under that entity, all products returns incosistent values

        From what i can tell your "PARETO" table is a combination of columns from the OK_INVOICE_ALL_EXCEL table and four different measures. Is it only the measure values that display incorrect values?

         

        "volume (ton)";[Volume (ton)];
"Turnover";[TurnoverPV];
"FP1";[FP1];
"FP2";[FP2]
