Hi,
I need a Measure that calculates summation of amounts based on currency (and other columns in the table). the output shall be separated by Currency.
Input Table:
Date | ColA | Currency | Amount |
01-01-20 | A | EUR | 1000 |
01-01-20 | A | USD | 2000 |
01-01-20 | A | EUR | 3000 |
01-01-20 | B | USD | 1000 |
02-01-20 | A | EUR | 2000 |
02-01-20 | A | USD | 3000 |
02-01-20 | A | EUR | 1000 |
02-01-20 | A | USD | 2000 |
02-01-20 | A | EUR | 3000 |
02-01-20 | B | USD | 1000 |
02-01-20 | B | EUR | 2000 |
02-01-20 | B | USD | 3000 |
Expected Output:
ColA | Measure |
A | 10000 EUR + 7000 USD |
B | 2000 EUR + 5000 USD |
I tried with the below expression but the values are not showing correctly:
Amount = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Amount]), ALL('Table'[Currency]))
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @Anonymous , you may want to try this measure
Total By Currency =
CONCATENATEX (
VALUES ( 'Table'[Currency] ),
FORMAT ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Amount] ) ), "#,##0" ) & " " & 'Table'[Currency],
" + ",
'Table'[Currency], ASC
)
Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
