Multiply multiple rows with a single value in another table

All

 

I'm trying to calculate a yield. Take the following example. I have a table where I have sales data per SKU per month (Table_sales). Several SKU's are linked to a single asset. The relation between the asset and SKU's in maintained in a seperate table (Table_Asset). Next to this I have a table that contains some key metrics on the assets like a loss percentage (Table_Asset_Metric). Table_Asset and Table_Asset_Metric are linked to eachother.

 

I'm trying to calculate to calculate the amount of assets I'm losing based on the sales. 

 

Here an example.

 

SKU A 2000 sold in month 1 --> SKU A is shipped in Asset XYZ

SKU A 3000 sold in month 2 --> SKU A is shipped in Asset XYZ

SKU B 1000 sold in month 1 --> SKU B is shipped in Asset XYZ

SKU B 2000 sold in month 2 --> SKU B is shipped in Asset XYZ

 

Per shipment of Asset XYZ I have loss of 2%.

 

I would like to calculate the total amount of asset XYZ I'm losing. In excel I would calculate like this:

 

Loss asset XYZ = ( total volume SKU A + total volume SKU B) * Asset loss per shipment = (2000 + 3000 + 1000+ 2000) * 2% = 160

 

Table sales: 

SKU Month  volume     
A        1         2000          
A        2         3000         
B        1         1000             
B        2         2000  

C        1           500

C        2         1000

 

Table_Asset

SKU      Asset

A            XYZ

B            XYZ

C            123

 

Table_Asset_Metric

Asset         Losses%

XYZ              2%

123              5%

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

 

Here is the PBIX  SKU

This was pretty straightforward with your good explanation. Thank you. However when I added the filters, I realized that one would need a weighted average loss dollar amount if there were more than 1 loss percentage. (i.e. select A and C ) So that was interesting.

 

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos are nice too.

Total Sales for Selected SKU = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Volume]),ALLSELECTED(Sales[SKU]))

sumx(sales,Sales[Volume] * [Losses per Asset Carrier All Selected])

Percentage Loss = Divide([Total Losses],[Total Sales for Selected SKU])


Losses per Asset Carrier All Selected = CALCULATE(AVERAGE(ASSET_METRIC[Losses%]),Filter(Sales,Sales[SKU]=(Sales[SKU])))

hi Nathaniel

 

I got an additional challenge. 😉 Assume that I add in the example above a column to the table with the losses. I would the column year. In this case I would insert a loss % value for 2018 and another row with a value for 2019. How should I calculate in this case the same but taking e.g. the loss for 2019 only.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Can't add years to this table.
