Create a relationship between Fact Table Values and Measure Values
- 1 year agoCPL FB =SWITCH(SELECTEDVALUE(Countries[Country]),"DE",DIVIDE([Sum Spend DE FB],[Sum Leads DE FB],0),"AT",DIVIDE([Sum Spend AT FB],[Sum Leads AT FB],0))
Hi cn4422
Thanks for the reply from lbendlin .
cn4422 , based on your current description, are you trying to put the Country column and measure into one table and create a relationship with the Country column in the original table? If so, please refer to the following test. If this sample data is structurally different from the one you are using, as lbendlin said, we need you to provide some sample data so that we can help you better. Currently I am using sample data from Power BI Desktop.
1. Create a measure as follows
sum = CALCULATE(SUM(financials[Profit]), ALLEXCEPT(financials, financials[Country]))
2. Create a calculated table as follows
sum per country = SUMMARIZE(financials, financials[Country], "sum", [sum])
3. Create a relationship between two tables
Best Regards,

Hi Anonymous ,
so, finally I'm back with building this report!
Thanks for your suggestions and the file. I checked everything and I think I didn't explain accurtely enough what my challenge is. In your sample report you have the "profit" with respective countries which are part of the "financials" table. I understand how you get relations then.
In my case, however, there are countries, but actually I think it's not relevant. I could also make a new table with a countries column. What I would like to achieve is to then get the measures into this table.
I'm not sure about providing sample data, that's why I'm tryining to explain it as simple as possible in this way. 🙂

What I would like to achieve is to then get the measures into this table.You cannot/should not create calculated columns from measures. They don't have the same context.

I suppose I'm not familiar enough with PBI yet to grasp this concept...
Also, since I'm not sure how to provide data without giving away sensitive information in this case, I'm trying to illustrate my challenge with the following short video in PBI, in which I can hopefully explain what I'm trying to achieve 😄
Thanks in advance! ^^
