Issue with Aggregating Measures Using SELECTEDVALUE()

VT_KMS — Sun, 23 Mar 2025 15:30:55 GMT

Hi all,

I am having an issue with using SELECTEDVALUE(). I created a measure with SELECTEDVALUE() to calculate revenue change at the product level.

However, when I try to aggregate that value to the month level, it doesn't work if PRODUCTKEY is not present in the visual.

Expected value should be -15,828.

Here are my dax measure:

revenue_change_product =
var __category = SELECTEDVALUE(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[CATEGORY_PRODUCT])
var __curAmount = SUM(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[ARR_AMOUNT])

RETURN
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
__category = "CROSS-SELLPRODUCT1", __curAmount - [PRE_CROSS-SELL1],
__category = "LOST-PRODUCTPRODUCT1", __curAmount - [PRE_LOST_PRODUCT1],
__category = "PRODUCT REACTIVATIONPRODUCT1", __curAmount - [PRE_REACT_PRODUCT1]
)

sum_updownsell_product =

SUMX(

FILTER(

(customer_product_measure),

SELECTEDVALUE(customer_product_measure[MONTH])

)

[revenue_change_product]

)

How can I properly aggregate this measure to the month level even when PRODUCTKEY is not in the visual? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Hi VT_KMS , Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.

We have two methods to do this:
By using CALCULATE, you modify the filter context to ignore the product-level details while keeping the month-level context intact. SUMX then iterates over all products and sums the revenue changes correctly. This is the most efficient and robust solution, especially for larger datasets.

sum_updownsell_product =

CALCULATE(

SUMX(

ALL(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT), -- Removes product-level filters

[revenue_change_product]

VALUES(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[MONTH]) -- Keeps the month-level filter

)

The second approach uses SUMMARIZE to create a temporary table grouped by month, then uses SUMX to iterate over it and aggregate the revenue changes. While this works perfectly fine, it may be less performant on large datasets due to the table creation step.

sum_updownsell_product =

SUMX(

SUMMARIZE(

ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT,

ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[MONTH],

"MonthlyRevenueChange", SUM([revenue_change_product])

[MonthlyRevenueChange]

)

You could try something like below.

revenue_change_product = CALCULATE(SUM(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[ARR_AMOUNT]) - [PRE_CROSS-SELL1], KEEPFILTERS(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[CATEGORY_PRODUCT] = "CROSS-SELLPRODUCT1") + CALCULATE(SUM(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[ARR_AMOUNT]) - [PRE_LOST_PRODUCT1], KEEPFILTERS(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[CATEGORY_PRODUCT] = "LOST-PRODUCTPRODUCT1") + CALCULATE(SUM(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[ARR_AMOUNT]) - [PRE_REACT_PRODUCT1], KEEPFILTERS(ARRDATA_CUSTOMER_PRODUCT[CATEGORY_PRODUCT] = "PRODUCT REACTIVATIONPRODUCT1")
