Combine 2 measures

ShevKov — Mon, 09 Nov 2020 07:13:53 GMT

Hi all, I have created two measures that work. Now my goal is to combine these into 1 measure with the rule being: if for a certain period (date) measure 1 does not return anything, the results from measure 2 should be displayed.

Is there any equivalant for IF(ISBLANK( that can be used for this situation?

Two measures are based on same column but with different filter:

Measure 1 = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[column]),'Table'[column2] = FALSE())

Measure 2 = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[column]),'Table'[column2]= TRUE())

If more information about the case is needed, please ask.

Any help is very welcome, thank you!

ShevKov , is not same as sum('Table'[column])

or if(isblank([measure 1]), [measure 2],[measure 1])

ShevKov , if, at any moment, one of [Meaure 1] and [Measure 2] is blank, you might simply combine them this way,

Measure Combined = [Meaure 1] + [Measure 2]

Hi,

however you can't do that if you try to sum (not total summation) measure from different tables.

how can you solve that?
