Hi,
I'm trying to implement a measure with NOT(CONSTAINSSTRING) with 2 values, as in the following example:
The first NOT(CONTAINS) filter is working but the second one is being ignored.
Any idea what's wrong with this measure?
Thx in advance! 🙂
Solved! Go to Solution.
I think you might have the nesting wrong. What you currently have is
Test =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'GA, FB, Spend'[spend] ),
'GA, FB, Spend'[account_name] = "DE",
CONTAINSSTRING ( 'GA, FB, Spend'[campaign], "Gemischt*" ),
NOT (
CONTAINSSTRING ( 'GA, FB, Spend'[ad_group_name], "PR01*" )
&& NOT ( CONTAINSSTRING ( 'GA, FB, Spend'[ad_group_name], "PR02*" ) )
)
)
If you're trying to exclude both PR01 and PR02 try
Test =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'GA, FB, Spend'[spend] ),
'GA, FB, Spend'[account_name] = "DE",
CONTAINSSTRING ( 'GA, FB, Spend'[campaign], "Gemischt*" ),
NOT CONTAINSSTRING ( 'GA, FB, Spend'[ad_group_name], "PR01*" )
&& NOT CONTAINSSTRING ( 'GA, FB, Spend'[ad_group_name], "PR02*" )
)
