Sum after a date

Anonymous — Mon, 03 May 2021 12:11:40 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to make a sum if formula (this is how I would solve it in Excel) or something similair in powerbi.

I couldnt find a formula for or something else for this. See the picture below for more clarity.

I have the spend per vendor per month in a different table. With this data I want to sum the the spend after the enddate per vendor. So something like IF[spend booked after enddate] = 'yes', Sum(spend per vendor month) after enddate.

I can't get this working.

Hope someone can help,

Thanks in advance!

Anonymous , based on what I got. You have two tables

a new column in table 1

if(Table1[endDate] < maxx(filter(Table2, Table2[vendors] =table1[Vendors]),[spend date]), "Yes", "No")

refer 4 ways to copy data from one table to another

amitchandak Thanks a lot for your help.

I'm sorry If my question was unclear. I indeed have two tables. One with most information as seen in the picture (lets call this table 1). Then I have a spend table with the spend per vendor per month. Now I want to sum the spend on a vendor after the enddate passed. So If spend booked after enddate = yes I want to sum the spend for that vendor. If spend booked after enddate is no, it can stay blank.

I added a new column to table 1 and tried your formula.

But I get the error: "Too many arguments were passed to the Filter function. The maximum argument count for the function is 2"

Thanks again for your help!
