Calculate Sum when lookup value is in search colu

SteveMBSDO — Mon, 24 Apr 2023 11:22:11 GMT

Hello,

I want to calculate the SUM of the ratio for each month. What I would expect is value 138,26 in every row in column ‘Sum of Ratio’ when month = 1. And another value that corresponds to the sum of that month.

When I hardcode value 1 in the fitler it works (but that's not the solution ofcourse 😉
-> FILTER(dimCalculations, dimCalculations[Month] = 1)

My approach comes from excel, but I guess that doesn’t work here. Can anyone help me in the right direction?

Kind regards,

Steve

hi SteveMBSDO

try like:

Sum of Ratio = SUMX( FILTER( dimCalculations, dimCalculations[Month] = EARLIER(dimCalculations[Month]) ), dimCalculations[Ratio] )

or like:

Sum of Ratio = CALCULATE( SUM(dimCalculations[Ratio]), ALLEXCEPT(dimCalculations, dimCalculations[Month]) )
