Sum with filters and lookup?

Dear all,

 

I'm trying to calculate our "real spend" by deducting various expenses from our total spend. (Total costs minus HR costs, branches, partnerships etc).

 

I had written this amateurish, but "working" piece of formula that is now giving me an error after updating my data sources (excel files):

My measure:

 

 

_ Sum EKPO Partners:=CALCULATE (SUM(f_EKPO[Nettobestelwaarde]);
FILTER (f_EKPO; f_EKPO[EKPO_leverancier]<> "9996");
FILTER (f_EKPO; f_EKPO[Goederengroep]<>"S44411000");
FILTER (f_EKPO; f_EKPO[EKPO_leverancier]<> "9449");
FILTER (f_EKPO; f_EKPO[Goederengroep]<>"S61507000");
FILTER(f_EKPO;LOOKUPVALUE(f_EKKN[EKKN_GBR];f_EKKN[EKKN_key];f_EKPO[EKPO_key])<>"OUT");
FILTER(f_EKPO;LOOKUPVALUE(d_partners_filialen[Status];d_partners_filialen[Crediteur];f_EKPO[EKPO_leverancier])="Partners")
)

 

 

 

My goal is to calculate the [Nettobestelwaarde] for each row in table f_EKPO that meets certain conditions.

The sum may NOT include this:

  • rows with value 9996 and 9449 in column f_EKPO[EKPO_leverancier]
  • rows with value S61507000 and S44411000 in column f_EKPO[Goederengroep]
  • rows that have the value "OUT" in table f_EKKN[GBR]
  • rows that have the value "Partners" in table d_partners_filialen[Status]. 

The reason why I'm excluding these values is that I have already calculated their sum in previous measures. I have no idea if this is the most efficient way to trickle down from total costs to our "real spend", but it seems to work...

Is anyone able to guide me how to proberly exclude a few values by filtering and doing lookups?

 

Thanks all

 

Best regards,

 

Bram

Hi guys, it appeared that a value appeared more than once in my lookup table, thus giving me an error. I guess I've figured it out.
