Hello Everyone,
I have data of 2018 2019 2020 . I would like to see EVOLUTION INDEX of (2019 and 2020) on matrix visual, using (EINDEX = DIVIDE(1 + [Growth YOY],CALCULATE( 1 + [Growth YOY],ALLSELECTED())) * 100) measure.
Currently I'm using this measure on Growth YOY:
@vytautas1410 Indeed, it requires a glance of data model to troubleshoot. Btw, I think in such expressions, ALL('Calendar'[Date]) is redundant.
VAR __PREV_YEAR = CALCULATE(SUM('M'[Value]), ALL('Calendar'[Date]) , DATEADD('Calendar'[Date].[Date], -1, YEAR))
VAR __THIS_YEAR = CALCULATE(SUM('M'[Value]),ALL('Calendar'[Date]) ,DATEADD('Calendar'[Date].[Date], 0, YEAR))
When the first parameter of DATEADD func references a date column, it's replaced by CALCULATETABLE ( DISTINCT ( <Dates> ) ); context transition applies and filter context also takes effect accordingly. DATEADD returns a date table after the call, which is surely a subset of ALL(Calendar[Date]).
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! |
@vytautas1410 Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?
