300-0001-101,98no
300-0001-102,00no
300-0001-101,98no
300-0002-111500no
300-0002-111500no
300-0002-110,01yes

 

I need a DAX that show the outlier for each Cod number as example below. Second step is to show the status of the Outlier with "Yes" or "no". Thanks!

First of all, I'm glad you were so quick to help me.

Actually it would be the standard deviation I need. I put a few examples to facilitate understanding. To exemplify my need, imagine that in thousands of items, some items have very high or very low prices, but not all. So I need to find the standard deviation for the cases and delete them from the database.

@Anonymous , sorry, I am not sure what is your criteria for deviation, how do you define or measure the ourlier.

Maybe wait for other people to help. 😀

Sorry! Indeed, the columns came together. I attached an image for better viewing. please someone help me.

@Anonymous , seems you want to find the min and max of price, please see below measure and pbix file attached as well.

_outlier =
VAR _outlier_min = CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[Price]),all('Table'))
VAR _outlier_max = CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Price]),all('Table'))
RETURN
IF(
    CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Price])) = _outlier_min || CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Price])) = _outlier_max,
    "Yes",
    "No"
)

@Anonymous not sure what is your criteria for the outlier of Cod number, is it the length of Cod column or min/max price for Cod column, also for the example data, there is no vertical line or space to seperate Cod and Price column, it is no possible to identify the data in both columns

Hello! In the "cod."column I have two examples of the alot others: 300-0001-10 and 300-002-11. these two codes represent products with their respective prices and within each code I need to identify and show the Outliers. As the image bellow.
