Calculate Difference between Rows for a given Measure

Hi all, I want to calculate the relative value of the ATB by PDP visits between the control (off) and the variance (on) as listed below. The experiments are selected by a drop down selection and unf...

    Hi kulpushu ,

    The Table data is shown below:

    Please follow these steps:
    1. Use the following DAX expression to create a column

    Column = LEFT([Experiment Name],6)

    2.Use the following DAX expression to create a measure

    Off = 
VAR _a = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column])
VAR _b = _a & " Off"

RETURN CALCULATE(DIVIDE(SUM('Table'[ATB Visits]),SUM('Table'[PDP vistis]),0),'Table'[Experiment Name] = _b)

    3.Use the following DAX expression to create a measure

    On = 
VAR _a = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column])
VAR _b = _a & " On"

RETURN CALCULATE(DIVIDE(SUM('Table'[ATB Visits]),SUM('Table'[PDP vistis]),0),'Table'[Experiment Name] = _b)

     4.Final output

     

    Best Regards,

Hi kulpushu ,

Do your experiment names contain numbers to distinguish between different experiments, e.g. 'T1', 'Test2', '3t'? If yes, you can use the function 'CONTAINSSTRING' with Switch to create a calculated column.

If there are no logic to follow, can you give some examples?

Hi Anonymous thanks for your suggestion and my apologies for my late reply. It seems like I have gone back and had a look at my data. We have decided to narrow down the list of the strings contained in the "Experiment Name" field to those that have a consistent naming format, and thus I think your solution should indeed work. Thanks again for your support!
