Calculate doesn't work with my filter

Anonymous — Thu, 11 Apr 2024 18:08:24 GMT

I have a mesuare thar calculate a value basead in some rules, and it will return my total basead in another rules. The point is when I put my measure in a table, the filters thar I apply doens't work, and the mesuare filters the lines. I want that my measure can be filter by external filter.

Example:

My table without the measure:

-The filter 'stage' is working well.

My table WITH de measure:

-The mesuare filter the initiatives that have some return

My measure:

In another measure, I try to put some return conditional in cases I don't have a result, but in that way, the table still don't considering my filters.

Someone can helpme??

Anonymous Try ditching CALCULATE and go with SUMX(FILTER(...), ...)

Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?

hello Greg_Deckler

It's my first post, sorry if I don't be clear. I serched some answered but I can't find.
I expected that using my measure in the table, even tought I don't have a value, because my conditionals is blank, the measure don't filter my table, and the table showme all the results.

In the firts picture, I see a lot of initiatives (first column). Example the initiative number 90074:

But in the second, with the measure, I can see no more. I think because the measurte don't return a value, it filters de table, and I can't see the initiative 90074.
And if I try to apply anothers filters, that doesn't work to.

What I expected for my measure:

ID_INITIATIVE	ESTAGIO	MEASURE
1	L2
2	L2	10
3	L2	-5

What I got applied the measure:

ID_INITIATIVE	ESTAGIO	MEASURE
2	L2	10
3	L2	-5

Anonymous The easiest way to troubleshoot this is if you can provide sample source data as text and your measure formula as text or provide a sample PBIX file to download. This way the scenario can be recreated and tested locally and a solution developmed versus guessing.
