Multiple OR condtions within calculate

[san_bxl]

I have to write a DAX which filters data from three connected tables.
table 1. Project Resource Assignemnet
table 2.Project Resource
table 3,Project_activity

I need to now get a sum from Resource Assignement  and have multiple conditons 1 ,2 and 3
Between these i need to have OR and Condition 2 and 3 i need a AND within it

M11-2a_Scope =

CALCULATE(

    SUM('Project-Resource Assignment'[PlannedUnits]),

    ALL('DATE TABLE'),

    -- condition 1

    'Project-Resource'[Id] IN {

        "C3-GAD-14",  

        "C3-GAD-12",  

        "C3-GAD-13",  

        "C3-GAD-11",  

        "C3-GAD-2",  

        "C3-GAD-1",  

        "C3-GAD-7",  

        "C3-M-9"    

    } ||

-- condition 2

    (

        'Project-Resource'[Id] = "C3-M-102" &&

        LEFT('Project-Activity'[Id], 14) = "CM-"

    ) ||

    --

-- condition 2

    (

        'Project-Resource'[Id] = "C3-M-88" &&

        LEFT('Project-Activity'[Id], 14) = "CM-S3"  

    )

)


## the above code doesnt work

Hi @san_bxl 

Your DAX formula has logical flaws that prevent the CALCULATE function from interpreting the conditions as intended. Specifically, the logical OR (||) and AND (&&) operations must be properly nested, and the filter syntax needs to conform to the DAX filter context structure.

Here’s the corrected DAX formula:

M11-2a_Scope =
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Project-Resource Assignment'[PlannedUnits]),
    ALL('DATE TABLE'),
    
    // Condition 1
    OR(
        'Project-Resource'[Id] IN {
            "C3-GAD-14",  
            "C3-GAD-12",  
            "C3-GAD-13",  
            "C3-GAD-11",  
            "C3-GAD-2",  
            "C3-GAD-1",  
            "C3-GAD-7",  
            "C3-M-9"
        },

        // Condition 2 AND Condition 3
        AND(
            'Project-Resource'[Id] = "C3-M-102",
            LEFT('Project-Activity'[Id], 14) = "CM-"
        ),

        AND(
            'Project-Resource'[Id] = "C3-M-88",
            LEFT('Project-Activity'[Id], 14) = "CM-S3"
        )
    )
)

This formula should now calculate the sum of PlannedUnits with the specified conditions applied correctly.

I am looking for
condition 1 or Condition 2 or Conditon 3
If it satisfies any, its should calculate

Hi @san_bxl ,

You calculation is based on your data model.  We need to know the relationship in your report and what your table looks like.
Could you share a sample file with us and then show us a screenshot with the result you want? This will make it easier for us to find the solution.

@San_Raz 

Can you try this dax:

M11-2a_Scope =
CALCULATE(
    SUM('Project-Resource Assignment'[PlannedUnits]),
    ALL('DATE TABLE'),
    
    // Combine Condition 1, 2, and 3 with OR logic
    OR(
        // Condition 1
        'Project-Resource'[Id] IN {
            "C3-GAD-14",  
            "C3-GAD-12",  
            "C3-GAD-13",  
            "C3-GAD-11",  
            "C3-GAD-2",  
            "C3-GAD-1",  
            "C3-GAD-7",  
            "C3-M-9"
        },

        // Condition 2
        AND(
            'Project-Resource'[Id] = "C3-M-102",
            LEFT('Project-Activity'[Id], 14) = "CM-"
        ),

        // Condition 3
        AND(
            'Project-Resource'[Id] = "C3-M-88",
            LEFT('Project-Activity'[Id], 14) = "CM-S3"
        )
    )
)

In both LEFT functions you are taking 14 characters, I think you meant to only take 4.
