Hi Everyone,  I'm making a Date Table and in it I want to include a calculated Column "Total Order Amount" from 'Orders' Table where "Total Order Amount" column equals Orders[OrderQuantity] * Orders...

    Hi MichaelG1117 , 

     

    Based on your description, Please try code as below to create a Calculated Column.

    My Sample:

    Table = 
var _table=
ADDCOLUMNS(
    CALENDAR(DATE(2013,1,1),DATE(2013,1,31)),
    "Weeknum", WEEKNUM([Date]),
    "Week Number & Year", "W" & WEEKNUM([Date]) & " " &YEAR([Date]),
    "WeekYearNumber", YEAR([Date]) & 100 + WEEKNUM([Date])
    )
return
ADDCOLUMNS(
    _table,    
    "Total Order Amount",
    SUMX(
    FILTER(ALL(Orders),
    'Orders'[OrdeDaterKey]=EARLIER([Date])),[OrderQuantity]*[SalesPrice])
    )

    Result is as below.

     

    Best Regards,

HI, MichaelG1117 

I think it is correct because there are no filter part present in table from where total order amount column filter means your column(total order amount) has no data lineage for that table so you have to provide some filter part like product code or product name or orderquantity(as above in your first image) or something from which your column(total order amount) filter according to that

    I tried:  
     
    "Total Order Amount", CALCULATE(Sumx('Orders','Orders'[OrderQuantity]*'Orders'[SalesPrice]),
         FILTER(Orders, Orders[OrderDateKey]))
     
    Did not work, though
