POWER PIVOT DOES NOT FILTER VIRTUAL TABLE IN EXCEL MODE

Simple thing.

I am creating virtual table in DAX with filtered data which matches some criterias, then I want to display that data by campaigns, but

in Pivot I see only the particular date I have filtered initially, despite the fact that later I do obtain virtual table with all possible campaigns.

In DAX STUDIO I see that table, but when I create measure using that table in EXCEL POWER PIVOT I see only that campaign I was filtering for...

I tried all stuff I had in my mind but now stuck,what can be wrong...

 

TABL= just selects data from initial table and breaks lineage for me later to be joined with the list I need.

test - is the list I need. So it represents list of customers on particular campaign. Then I want to see how they perform in future campaigns and I do naturalleftouterjoin with TABL by their ID and DATASET.

Then filter those which I need. THEN use IN DAX measure and I see the table I need- All campaigns, and all customers placed order in particular campaign.

After I copy all this data in EXCEL POWER PIVOT (green window) create measure and want to see it via PIVOT TABLE I see only that campaign they placed order, all other campaigns are not visible.

VAR Tabl=selectcolumns(TABLE;

               CUST_ID;TABLE[CUST_ID]+0;

               DATASET;TABLE[DATASET]&"";

               CUST_TYPE;TABLE[CUST_TYPE]+0;

               CAMPAIGN;TABLE[CAMPAIGN]&"";

               SALES;TABLE[SALES]+0;

               ACTIVE;TABLE[ACTIVE]+0;

               LOYALTY_GRADE;TABLE[LOYALTY_GRADE]+0;

               TAXES;TABLE[TAXES]+0

               )                           

VAR times=SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER(VALUES(TABLE[CAMPAIGN]);[CAMPAIGN]="2020-04");"CAMPAIGN";[CAMPAIGN]&"";"CAMP_ID";"Y")

                                          

VAR test=FILTER(NATURALLEFTOUTERJOIN(Tabl;times);[CAMP_ID]="Y")

                                          

VAR LOYALTY_GRADE_APR2020=FILTER(test;[LOYALTY_GRADE]=1)

                                          

VAR list_apr20_a=SELECTCOLUMNS(LOYALTY_GRADE_APR2020;"DATASET";[DATASET]&"";"CUST_ID";[CUST_ID]+0;"STATUS";"APR_20";"CAMPAIGN";[CAMPAIGN]&"")

                                          

VAR list_apr20=SELECTCOLUMNS(list_apr20_a;"DATASET";[DATASET]&"";"CUST_ID";[CUST_ID]+0;"STATUS";"APR_20")

                                          

                                          

VAR temp1=NATURALLEFTOUTERJOIN(Tabl;list_apr20)

                                          

VAR temp=filter(temp1;[STATUS]<>"")

                                          

VAR result=calculate(sumx(temp;[SALES]))

                                          

                                          

return                               

                                          

calculate(sumx(temp;[SALES]))

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

According to your statement and code, I know that you will need to use SELECTCOLUMN and NATURALLEFTOUTERJOIN function to build virtual tables and then calculate the result as you want. I think your code is complex, please share a sample file with us and show us a screenshot with the result you want. This will make us easier to understand your requirement.
