(Sorry, this is a duplicate question that I posted few days ago, but I am posting again because I did not get a solution).
I am trying to create a calculated column where I originally had two ranges to bring in as condition.
I was able to create a calcuated column with both Min and Max range, but I would like to only use Max.
Here is an illustration:
I was able to use this DAX and it worked fine.
Measure =
CALCULATE(
VALUES(Star[Value]),
FILTER(
Star,
Star[Min] <= Sum(Test[Test])
&& Star[Max] >= SUM(Test[Test])
)
)
But, I would like to only use one column (Max) instead of using two columns (with Min).
Bottom is just an illustration..
MeasureNEW =
CALCULATE(
VALUES(Star[Value]),
FILTER(
Star,
Star[Max] >= MAX(Test[Test]) ??
)
)
How do I accomplish it?
Solved! Go to Solution.
[Measure] =
IF( HASONEVALUE( Test[Facility] ),
var CurrentTestValue = SELECTEDVALUE( Test[Test] )
return
CALCULATE(
SELECTEDVALUE( Star[Value] ),
// This TOPN should return
// just one row if everything
// is correctly and logically
// built and this, in turn, will
// make only one Value be visible
// in the context, hence SELECTEDVALUE
// will return only one value as it
// should be.
TOPN(1,
FILTER(
ALL( Star ),
CurrentTestValue <= Star[Max]
),
Star[Max],
ASC
)
)
)
[Measure] =
IF( HASONEVALUE( Test[Facility] ),
var CurrentTestValue = SELECTEDVALUE( Test[Test] )
return
CALCULATE(
SELECTEDVALUE( Star[Value] ),
// This TOPN should return
// just one row if everything
// is correctly and logically
// built and this, in turn, will
// make only one Value be visible
// in the context, hence SELECTEDVALUE
// will return only one value as it
// should be.
TOPN(1,
FILTER(
ALL( Star ),
CurrentTestValue <= Star[Max]
),
Star[Max],
ASC
)
)
)

Sorry this is late response.
But I am curious the purpose of having this column - Star[Max]?
),
Star[Max],
ASC
)
Is this just for "Sort by Star[Max] ASC"?
Thanks.
@Anonymous
Thank you for your feedback. I guess you meant Star[Max],
ASC replaces the functionality of TOPN.
@JustinDoh1
You cannot use VALUES(Star[Value]) as the 1st argument for CALCULATE, it has to return a single value or be an aggregation like sum, average...ets.
If you want to return the count, for example, do it this way
MeasureNEW =
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(VALUES(Star[Value])),
FILTER(
Star,
Star[Max] >= EARLIER(Test[Test])
)
)

You wanted a Calculated Column, I think you are trying as a measure.
