Spend Buckets

Anonymous — Tue, 04 Jul 2023 07:11:47 GMT

Hi All,

I wanted to create spend buckets for spend by Name. However, I do not want to categorize the bucket by each line instead it will read total spend then it classifies which bucket it falls to. Also, I wanted to use as column instead of measure so that I can display the buckets in chart.

Please refer my mock data below

This is what I wanted to display

Thank you!

Hi,

Here is one way to do this:

Bucket = var _sum = SUM('Table (32)'[Spend]) return

SWITCH(TRUE(),

_sum<50,"Less than 50",

_sum<100,"More than 50",

_sum>=100,"More than 100")

When placed in a table the result is like this:

If you want a column here is an example of that:

Bucket_c = var _sum = CALCULATE(SUM('Table (32)'[Spend]),ALLEXCEPT('Table (32)','Table (32)'[Name])) return

SWITCH(TRUE(),

_sum<50,"Less than 50",

_sum<100,"More than 50",

_sum>=100,"More than 100")

I hope this post helps to solve your issue and if it does consider accepting it as a solution and giving the post a thumbs up!
