I need help in calculating weighted sales.
Context:
There are two tables; Sales transaction and Sales Weights tables (examples attached with dummy data).
Sales is divided into direct and indirect sales. If it is indirect sales is alocated to sales rep. who is covering that specific customer. On the other side if sales is direct, then sales amount should be splitted to sales reps by weights given in Sales Weights table.
Relationship between tables:
In order to create relationship between two tables, bridge table is created with unique code created by merging category and customer code.
How to create formula that will calculate weighted sales for direct sales for each sales rep per customer per category? Some switch formula
Thanks

Hi @Ilija89 ,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.
You are expecting formula that will calculate weighted sales for direct sales for each sales rep per customer per category.
Please refer below output snap and attached PBIX file.
I hope this information helps. Please do let us know if you have any further queries.
Regards,
Dinesh
Hi @Ilija89
I am almost there but it seems to me that the tables are not complete (?)
For example, in Sales there is a row for Cust KG, category 2 and Salesman AK which is not refelected in the weights table, am I wrong? If you can cover all the Sales cases in the weights table, that will help me debug and send you the solution
Thanks

Hi @FBergamaschi this is the case that I am facing with. In tis particualr situation if for specific customer sales rep is asigned then sales is equal to that sales rep, in other case when sales is direct then we should calculate that row by multypling that sales with weights given for that customer.
Weights
Customer | Category | Customer code | Sales Representative | Weight | Category-Customer Code |
AB | 1 | 1ab | A.K | 25% | 1_1ab |
AB | 2 | 1ab | B.J | 100% | 2_1ab |
AB | 1 | 1ab | G.L | 75% | 1_1ab |
AC | 1 | 1ac | A.K | 33% | 1_1ac |
AC | 1 | 1ac | B.J | 33% | 1_1ac |
AC | 1 | 1ac | G.L | 33% | 1_1ac |
AF | 2 | 1af | A.K | 50% | 2_1af |
AF | 2 | 1af | B.J | 50% | 2_1af |
AF | 1 | 1af | G.L | 100% | 1_1af |
KG | 1 | 1kg | A.K | 50% | 1_1kg |
KG | 2 | 1kg | B.J | 100% | 2_1kg |
KG | 1 | 1kg | G.L | 50% | 1_1kg |
Sales table
Customer | Sales Type | Category | Date | Customer code | Sales amount | Sales Rep | Category-Customer Code |
AB | Direct | 1 | Jan-25 | 1ab | 423,423 | Direct | 1_1ab |
AB | Indirect | 1 | Feb-25 | 1ab | 43,342 | G.L | 1_1ab |
AC | Direct | 2 | Jan-25 | 1ac | 4,444,556 | Direct | 2_1ac |
AF | Direct | 1 | Feb-25 | 1af | 44,656 | Direct | 1_1af |
KG | Indirect | 2 | Feb-25 | 1kg | 7,878 | A.K | 2_1kg |
Bridge table
Customer | Category | Customer code | Category-Customer Code |
AB | 1 | 1ab | 1_1ab |
AB | 2 | 1ab | 2_1ab |
AC | 1 | 1ac | 1_1ac |
AC | 2 | 1ac | 2_1ac |
AF | 1 | 1af | 1_1af |
AF | 2 | 1af | 2_1af |
KG | 1 | 1kg | 1_1kg |
KG | 2 | 1kg | 2_1kg |
Hi @FBergamaschi above are dummy data examples.
Thanks!
Hi @Ilija89 ,
Please add an example of what you need as output? a table including customers, sales rep, and weights?!
Hi @Selva-Salimi I need output as total sales of particular sales rep (sum of direct and indirect sales).per category per customer.
Thanks, Ilija
Hi @Ilija89,
it seems nothing difficult but to help you in the best possible way, please can you attach the tables with dummy data in a usable format? Not an image but text
Thanks
