Duplicating values for two dates

yve214 — Thu, 02 Jun 2022 17:35:14 GMT

Hi there,

Please I need some urgent help. I am trying to calculate my quantity values where I duplicate a value for friday to reflect on saturday as well. Here is a sample data

Data:

Date	Category	qty
3/27/2022	a	2,000
3/27/2022	b	2,050
3/27/2022	c	3,100
3/26/2022	b	2,600
3/26/2022	c	3,000
3/25/2022	a	1,000
3/25/2022	b	1,500
3/25/2022	c	2,300

Current results without the category column:

Date	qty
3/27/2022	7,150
3/26/2022	5,600
3/25/2022	4,800

Expected results if we duplicate every Friday value for category a only to add on Saturdays as well:

Date	qty	Comments
3/27/2022	7,150
3/26/2022	6,600	5,600 +1,000 from 3/25 which is a friday
3/25/2022	4,800

Please thank you very much.

Hi yve214

not sure if I fully understand the requirement. However, please try

Total Qty = VAR CurrentValue = SUM ( TableName[qty] ) VAR PreviousValue = CALCULATE ( SUM ( TableName[qty] ), 'Date'[Date] = MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ) - 1, TableName[Category] = "a" ) RETURN IF ( MAX ( 'Date'[Week Day Name] ) = "Saturday", CurrentValue + PreviousValue, CurrentValue )
