Dear all
I have a table (A) with actual inventory days and sales forecast. In another table (table B) I have max and min inventory days, both tables are related by a common key)
I tried to create 3 new columns in table A to have sales over max and under min and in range with very basic formulas:
Column 1 - Sales under Min= if(actuals<min, sales forecast,0)
Column 2 - Sales over Max= if(actuals>max, sales forecast,0)
Column 3 - In range= sales forecast-(min+max)
Column 1 is ok, issue is that when I try to create the other 2 in table A as appears a circular dependency
Therefore, to avoid this, I tried to create columns 2 and 3 with a measure (using the same formula)
But it seems that column 2 is working for row calculation but not in the grand total. It is calculating based on total for the column and not for each row:
As you can see, when in a row Actuals>Max it returns sales forecast
But, in the totals is caclulating 1918>1023=sales forecast, or in the case that is actuals<max then returns 0 as condition is not true
I understand that the measure is not wrong as somehow is doing what i wrote in DAX, but I would like to know how I can fix this to have in the grand total the sum of all rows and not the calculation based on totals
Many thanks in advance for the support
