Checking if all the values are the same

Hello community,

 

I am working in a measure that shows the contracted speed value for a bus fleet. The key is that all the buses are supposed to have the same value, and this is what I would like to check with a measure.

My idea is to check if all the values from a selected fleet are the same and then return the value, but in case there are 2 or more different values, I would like to show a message like "More than two values available".

 

Hope it makes sense!

Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi,

You could utilize COUNTROWS and DISTINCT.
DAX:

Measure 21 =

IF(COUNTROWS(DISTINCT('Table (12)'[Column2]))>1,1,0)


E.g. (non distinct values:

e.g. distinct:

oh wait, I thought so, my formula would look like:

Contracted AVG Energy Usage kWh/km = if(
    ISFILTERED(DIM_Chassis[FLEET_FLEET_ID]) && IF(COUNTROWS(DISTINCT(DIM_Chassis[FLEET_FLEET_ID]))>1,1,0),
    "More than one value",
    MAX(DIM_Chassis[D_ENERGY_CONSUMPTION_THEORICAL])
    )
 
But it's actually not working the way I want, I think is because I need only the buses in the selected fleet. I was thinking to try a variable? Something like:
Contracted AVG Energy Usage kWh/km =
var fleet = ISFILTERED(DIM_Chassis[FLEET_FLEET_ID])
return if (
    COUNTROWS(DISTINCT(DIM_Chassis[FLEET_FLEET_ID] && ...
    "More than one value",
    MAX(DIM_Chassis[D_ENERGY_CONSUMPTION_THEORICAL])
    )
Thanks again!

Hmm,

How about using ALLSELECTED to limit the filter context to only selected fleet? So something like this structure: IF(COUNTROWS(DISTINCT(ALLSELECTED(DIM_Chassis[FLEET_FLEET_ID]))))

mmm, yeah I see the logic, but then it turns out that it's returning how many fleets I have selected, not if the chassis inside the fleet have the same value, if that makes sense?

Contracted AVG Energy Usage kWh/km = if(
    ISFILTERED(DIM_Chassis[FLEET_FLEET_ID]) && IF(COUNTROWS(DISTINCT(ALLSELECTED(DIM_Chassis[T_CHASSIS])))>1,1,0),
    "More than one value",
    MAX(DIM_Chassis[D_ENERGY_CONSUMPTION_THEORICAL])
    )
