Unique values

Hello

Hope you can help me. The first two columns below are my data. Each client manager as a minimum capacity of clients. I need to aggregate the total by client manager but the way I have the data the value repeats in several rows. This is because the data comes from the system.  so when I try to sum the totals power BI sums the total but what I need is a unique value by client manager and then do the total. Any advice in how I can do that?

 

 

Client Manager

Min capacity of Clients

Power BI total

What I need is the unique value by client manager

  • Hey Anonymous ,

     

    first I recommend to remove duplicate rows using Power Query.

    If this is not possible, then the below measure creates what you are looking for:

     

    Measure = 
    SUMX(
        VALUES( 'Table'[Client Manager] )
        , CALCULATE( AVERAGE('Table'[Min capacity of Clients] ) )
    )

     

    And a table visual:

     

     

     

    Hopefully, this provides what you are looking for.

     

    Regards,

    Tom
