Calculate difference between each column value and one reference value in a column
Hi all,
I would like to create a measure that creates the difference between a column and the first value of that column so I can display deltas between the first value (reference value) and the rest of the values. For example, in Excel this would simply be:
where row 1 is bolded and serves as the reference value.
I see that there is a "Variance" quick measure but that just shows the difference from row to row, not to a single reference value. I have tried this approach but it produces all 0's when I add it as a column to my table:
ValueDelta = calculate(sum(Table[Value]))-calculate(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Value],[Value]))
To be clear, I would like the result to be a measure rather than a calculated column so that the result responds to slicers on the page.
Thanks for the help!
