Solution for disappear the unnecessary results

Poo1405 — Thu, 07 Oct 2021 12:00:04 GMT

I had a mistake when I designed my dashboard; it can be seen from the picture below, the actual amount spent and CPQL only belong to a value of FB (and the others odd must be zero because the amount of its belongs to spent for vendors field),

I tried to fix it by adding the function Filter = FB, it works when it only appears in FB rows, but it is wrong the original number.

this is my fixed wrong solution:

Amount Spent (USD) for FB =

CALCULATE(

SUM('fb rp'[Amount Spent (USD)]),FILTER('file combine','file combine'[utmSource] = "FB")

)

Additional note: currently, I have connected the amount spend field from another table, but only to the campaign level (GLU_2021Q3_OSSW_GLADIATOR2), I think that's why the levels below the numbers don't map correctly, but that number was calculated accurately.

I don't know how to solve my problem, and I need help and advice from everyone. Can anyone help me solve it?
Thank for taking a look at my post!!

How is your model set up?

can you share a non-confidential PBIX file or sample data?

I also thought that I had designed a relationship that was unsuitable for my design purposes, but I have not found a way to fix it. You can see the current file t is testing; I think that's no problem.

The issue is with the field you are using in the visual (utmsource from the file combine table) which has no relationship with the fb rp table on which you are carrying out the sums.
I would recommend you change relationships of the Source dimension table as follows, and then use the utmsource field from this dimension table:

Happy to help! Just make sure that the utmsource field in the Source dimension table contains all possible values from both 'file combine' [utmsource] and 'fb rp'[Source]
