Concatnate a Measure and Column

Anonymous — Wed, 20 Nov 2019 00:24:54 GMT

Hi,

I have a requirement to show the title of a multi row card (highligthed in the snip) as combination of a Text, column and a Measure.

I am able to get the values correctly for each individual item but if the text, column value and the measure value are concatnated using "&", the value of measure is blank.

Measure Details:

TotalSuccess = CALCULATE(SUM(PageAttempts[Attempts]),FILTER(PageAttempts,PageAttempts[Success/failed]="Success"),ALLSELECTED(PageAttempts[Date]))

#Total = sumx(ALLEXCEPT(PageAttempts,PageAttempts[Stepname],PageAttempts[Steps],PageAttempts[Success/failed],PageAttempts[Column2],PageAttempts[Date]),[Total])

%dist = CALCULATE(DIVIDE([TotalSuccess],Sumx(ALL(PageAttempts[Steps],PageAttempts[Stepname],PageAttempts[Success/failed],PageAttempts[Column2]),[#Total])))

Step+Stepname = PageAttempts[Steps] & " " & PageAttempts[Stepname] & " "

Show = PageAttempts[Step+Stepname] & ": " & [TotalSuccess] & " / " & [Total]

Show measure is not working as the output has incorrect value of TotalSuccess & #Total measures.

Steps	Stepname	Attempts	Success/failed	Country	Date
Step0	Initialstep	1	Success	US	11/1/2019 0:00
Step1	Step1Completed	1	Success	US	11/1/2019 0:00
Step0	Initialstep	1	Success	US	11/2/2019 0:00
Step1	Step1inComplete	1	Failed	US	11/2/2019 0:00
Step0	Initialstep	1	Success	US	11/3/2019 0:00
Step2	step2Completed	1	Success	US	11/3/2019 0:00
Step0	Initialstep	1	Success	US	11/4/2019 0:00
Step2	Step2Error	1	Error	US	11/4/2019 0:00
Step0	Initialstep	1	Success	US	11/5/2019 0:00
Step2	Step2incomplete	1	Failed	US	11/5/2019 0:00
Step0	Initialstep	1	Success	IN	11/10/2019 0:00
Step1	Step1Completed	1	Success	IN	11/10/2019 0:00
Step0	Initialstep	1	Success	IN	11/11/2019 0:00
Step1	Step1Completed	1	Success	IN	11/11/2019 0:00
Step0	Initialstep	1	Success	IN	11/12/2019 0:00
Step2	step2Completed	1	Success	IN	11/12/2019 0:00

Anonymous have you tried CONCATENATE function.

Measure = CONCATENATE(MAX(PageAttempts[Column]),CONCATENATE(": ",CONCATENATE([TotalSuccess],CONCATENATE("/",[Total]))))

Thank You Vimal for helping out here.

However the measure work perfectly in table but when it is added to a Multi Row Card visual, it does not group based on "Steps" column rather it just gives the total.

Measure = CONCATENATE(MAX(PageAttempts[Step+Stepname]),CONCATENATE(": ",CONCATENATE([TotalSuccess],CONCATENATE("/",[#Total]))))

Thank You Anonymous. Yes this works..

However I was trying to have the concatnate measure as title of the card and %age value as Card data.

so added multiple cards with Steps as filter for each card. something like this..

Thank you very much for providing the solution of the measure that helped a lot.
