Hi Team,

Good day,

 

We wanted to SUM the volumn column but consider only unique records,

Highlighted expected column in YELLOW color , Would like to set 0 for duplicate records on based

datekey, payer,payer_parent,eng_code as below, Same time this should be work even for filters and slicers.

Hi @VijayAntonyM 

 

Thank you very much Rupak_bi for your prompt reply.

 

First, you can create a calculated column to combine datekey, payer, payer_parent, and egn_code to form a unique identifier.

 

UniqueID = [datekey] & "-" & [payer] & "-" & [payer_parent] & "-" & [egn_code]

 

Then create a measure.

AdjustedVolume = 
var _rank = 
RANKX(
    FILTER(
        ALL('Table'),
        'Table'[UniqueID] = MAX('Table'[UniqueID])
    ),
    CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Attribute])),
    ,
    ASC,
    Dense
)
RETURN
IF(
    _rank = 1,
    SUM('Table'[Volume]),
    0
)

 

If you don't want to create calculated columns, try that too:

 

Measure AdjustedVolume = 
var _rank = 
RANKX(
    FILTER(
        ALL('Table'),
        'Table'[datekey] = MAX('Table'[datekey])
        &&
        'Table'[payer] = MAX('Table'[payer])
        &&
        'Table'[payer_parent] = MAX('Table'[payer_parent])
        &&
        'Table'[egn_code] = MAX('Table'[egn_code])
    ),
    CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Attribute])),
    ,
    ASC,
    Dense
)
RETURN
IF(
    _rank = 1,
    SUM('Table'[Volume]),
    0
)

 

Here is the result.

Hi @VijayAntonyM ,

 

Please see below image. Hope this solves your problem using a simgle measure. I dont think making duplicate entries Zero is really required as far as your output is concerned.
