Embed a MIN function in the filter of a CALCULATE function
Hello, I am new to DAX.
I created a quick measure that works well (see Measure 1, below).
Measure 1 =
VAR __BASELINE_VALUE = CALCULATE(SUM('H_CASC'[VALUE]); 'H_W'[VALUE] IN {50})
VAR __MEASURE_VALUE = SUM('H_CASC'[VALUE])
RETURN
Now, I would like to modify this measure 1 by replacing the static value in the filter (see the expression in red below) by a dynamic min expression (see Measure 2 below).
Measure 1 =
VAR __BASELINE_VALUE = CALCULATE(SUM('H_CASC'[VALUE]); 'H_W'[VALUE] IN {50})
VAR __MEASURE_VALUE = SUM('H_CASC'[VALUE])
RETURN
IF(
NOT ISBLANK(__MEASURE_VALUE);
DIVIDE(__MEASURE_VALUE - __BASELINE_VALUE; __BASELINE_VALUE) + 1
)
Measure 2 =
MIN(H_W[VALUE])
I tried to do it in the Measure 3 but it does not work and I am not sure how to do it.
Thanks for any help on that matter.
Measure 3 (not working)=
VAR __BASELINE_VALUE = CALCULATE(SUM('H_CASC'[VALUE]); MIN(H_W[VALUE]))
VAR __MEASURE_VALUE = SUM('H_CASC'[VALUE])
RETURN
IF(
NOT ISBLANK(__MEASURE_VALUE);
DIVIDE(__MEASURE_VALUE - __BASELINE_VALUE; __BASELINE_VALUE) + 1
)
Hi PatBen
Try
Measure 3 V2 = VAR Min_ = MIN ( H_W[VALUE] )
VAR __BASELINE_VALUE = CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'H_CASC'[VALUE] ); H_W[VALUE] = Min_ ) VAR __MEASURE_VALUE = SUM ( 'H_CASC'[VALUE] ) RETURN IF ( NOT ISBLANK ( __MEASURE_VALUE ); DIVIDE ( __MEASURE_VALUE - __BASELINE_VALUE; __BASELINE_VALUE ) + 1 )Please mark the question solved when done and consider giving kudos if posts are helpful.
