I have a set of data which looks like the below and I need to determine whether a transaction is Fully Auto, Partially Auto or Manual.
The rule is:
- If a Transaction has User="Auto" for all 3 statuses, then "Fully Auto"
- If a Transaction has User is not "Auto" for all 3 statuses, then "Manual"
- If a Transaction has User = "Auto" for 1 or 2 statuses, then "Partially Auto"
How could I write this DAX measure?
Data
| Transaction | Status | User |
| Transaction A | Status A | Auto |
| Transaction A | Status B | Auto |
| Transaction A | Status C | Auto |
| Transaction B | Status A | Auto |
| Transaction B | Status B | User 1 |
| Transaction B | Status C | User 2 |
| Transaction C | Status A | User 1 |
| Transaction C | Status B | User 2 |
| Transaction C | Statucs C | User 3 |
Final Output
| Transaction | Outcome |
| Transaction A | Fully Auto |
| Transaction B | Partially Auto |
| Transaction C | Manual |
Outcome =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
ISEMPTY ( CALCULATETABLE ( Data, Data[User] = "Auto" ) ), "Manual",
COUNTROWS ( VALUES ( 'Data'[User] ) ) = 1, "Fully Auto",
"Partially Auto"
)
| Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
hi, @nsaray
I am not 100% sure if I understood your question correctly, but please check the below picture and the sample pbix file's link down below. It is for creating a measure.
Outcome Measure =
IF (
ISFILTERED ( Data[Transaction] ),
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
COUNTROWS ( VALUES ( Data[Status] ) ) = 3
&& CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( Data ), Data[User] = "Auto" ) = 3, "Fully Auto",
COUNTROWS ( VALUES ( Data[Status] ) ) = 3
&& CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( Data ), Data[User] = "Auto" ) > 0, "Partially Auto",
"Manual"
)
)
