Calculate amount based on substring, show value on matching row (in a measure)
Hi,
I am trying to figure out if there is any way to get the row values from one "Transaction Number" to a another "Transaction Number" in the same column.
For example, I have a transaction number that have som form of amount. Sometimes, there are transactions that have the identical number but start with a "C". The C stands for "Correction" and I would like to get the values from the ones that start with "C" and show the results in a measure but on the row with the corresponding number without a letter. Is this possible to do as measure?
Thank you 🙂
New Measure = SUMX( VALUES('Table'[Transaction Number]), VAR _current_tr_num = 'Table'[Transaction Number] VAR _correction = "C" & _current_tr_num VAR _result = CALCULATE([Amount Measure],'Table'[Transaction Number] = _correction) RETURN _result )

please try
NewMeasure = SUMX ( VALUES ( TableName[Transactio Number] ), CALCULATE ( IF ( RIGHT ( SELECTEDVALUE ( TableName[Transactio Number] ), 1 ) <> "C", CALCULATE ( [Amount], FILTER ( ALL ( TableName ), TableName[Transactio Number] = "C" & SELECTEDVALUE ( TableName[Transactio Number] ) ) ) ) ) )Thank you both for the quick replies. Unfortunately, I can’t get any of the codes to work since I misread my own data. The numbers are not identical, but the first 0 is replaced with a "C" e.g.
For your code @SpartaBI , I tried to alter the code like this (for the second variable):
"C" & LEFT(_current_tr_num,LEN(_current_tr_num)-1) .. But I might be getting the logic wrong.
And for your code @tamerj1 I couldn’t get "selectedvalue" to work (it was greyed out and not found by intellicense) so I replaced it with "hasonevalue", but the code is returning blanks.
I apologize in advance if the solution is simple. but I am a beginner in DAX.

Broderskap777 replace the LEFT with RIGHT 🙂
