Summarized table with today date alone
Hi all,
I need help in getting a table/ measure with today date alone.
Sample data:
Table 1:
Date | Gold company name | Price
-----------------------------------------
1/10/2018 x 100
12/10/2018 y 200
25/10/2018 x 400
25/10/2018 y 500
Expected output:
Date | GCN | Price
-----------------------------------------
25/10/2018 x 400
25/10/2018 y 500
After finding this I want to multiply that with a column in another table to find out the current trend
Table 2:
Username |Gold company name | Balance
----------------------------
Ram x 10
Issac y 20
Seetha x 30
Expected output:
Username |Gold company name | Balance
----------------------------
Ram x 4000 (10*400)
Issac y 1000 (20*500)
Seetha x 12000 (30*400)
I can do this by creating a query in sql,
1. create a table with current date data alone
2. Importing that table into power bi
3. Create a relationship using city among table 1 and table 2
4. Create a summarised table to get the product
Current_rate_summary = SUMX(SUMMARIZE(Table1,Table1[price],table2[balance],"product",Table1[price] * table2[balance]),[product])
Can somebody please say if there is a better way to do this? I thought it will be better to create a summarised table to get the current date only but cannot a figure out a way to get that.
Thanks,
Indhu.
Hi Indhu,
The first one could be achieved by the Visual Level Filter. The second one could be solved by a measure. Please check out the demo in the attachment.
Measure = LOOKUPVALUE ( Table1[Price], Table1[Date], TODAY (), Table1[Gold], MIN ( 'Table2'[Gold] ) ) * MIN ( Table2[Balance] )Best Regards,
Dale
