I have a table like below,
2 types of products. I want the last column Margin as calculated like:
For A: It is Revenue - T Price
& For B: It is Revenue - M Price.
How do I set up the Margin column to get the above conditions?
Product type | Revenue | T Price | M Price | Margin |
A | 40 | 36 | 40-36 | |
A | 54 | 50 | 54-50 | |
B | 32 | 28 | 27 | 32-27 |
B | 43 | 40 | 38 | 43-38 |
A | 33 | 30 | 33-30 | |
B | 29 | 27 | 25 | 29-25 |

@Anonymous you can write a measure like this
Measure =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
MAX ( 'Table 1'[Product type] ) = "A", SUM ( 'Table 1'[Revenue] ) - SUM ( 'Table 1'[T Price] ),
MAX ( 'Table 1'[Product type] ) = "B", SUM ( 'Table 1'[Revenue] ) - SUM ( 'Table 1'[M Price] )
)
or a calculated column
Column = SWITCH (
TRUE (),
'Table 1'[Product type] = "A",'Table 1'[Revenue]- 'Table 1'[T Price] ,
'Table 1'[Product type] = "B", 'Table 1'[Revenue] - 'Table 1'[M Price]
)
