Summarize with different tables

[Easley06]

Hi would like to ask why my measure is wrong when before its working with other ssas or visual studio dax 

Measure : not working

=COUNTROWS (
SUMMARIZE (
FILTER (
SUMMARIZE (
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY',
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY'[MD NAME],
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY'[FD NAME],
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY'[FM NAME],
'DIM_DEALER'[Level],
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY'[IS_FM_FAM_PRSNLTY],
"GROSS", [Gross Amount]
),
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY'[IS_FM_FAM_PRSNLTY] = 1
&& [GROSS] > 0
&& 'DIM_DEALER'[Level] <> "MD"
&& 'DIM_DEALER'[Level] <> "FD"
),
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY'[MD NAME],
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY'[FD NAME],
'DIM_DEALER_GENEALOGY'[FM NAME]
)
)

measure working 

=COUNTROWS (
SUMMARIZE (
FILTER (
SUMMARIZE (
'FACT_OFF_TAKE',
'FACT_OFF_TAKE'[MD_NAME],
'FACT_OFF_TAKE'[FD_NAME],
'FACT_OFF_TAKE'[FM_NAME],
'DIM_DEALERS'[LEVEL],
'FACT_OFF_TAKE'[IS_FM_FAM_PRSNLTY],
"GROSS", [Gross Amount]
),
'FACT_OFF_TAKE'[IS_FM_FAM_PRSNLTY] = 1
&& [GROSS] > 0
&& 'DIM_DEALERS'[LEVEL] <> "MD"
&& 'DIM_DEALERS'[LEVEL] <> "FD"
),
'FACT_OFF_TAKE'[MD_NAME],
'FACT_OFF_TAKE'[FD_NAME],
'FACT_OFF_TAKE'[FM_NAME]
)
)

Hi @Easley06  

As I understand in your example only difference is what is source of your SUMMARIZE table: fact or dimension table.

Using SUMMARIZE,  like you did it means columns from that table is summarized. In Power BI, you need relationship (or some other feature) to leverage connections between different tables.

I hope this help

Hi @Easley06 ,

Based on the information provided, it is difficult to determine why the measure is not working. However, there are some general tips that may help you troubleshoot the issue:

• Check the syntax of the measure to ensure that it is correct.
• Check the data types of the columns used in the measure to ensure that they are compatible.
• Check the relationships between the tables used in the measure to ensure that they are correctly defined.
• Check the filter context of the measure to ensure that it is correctly defined.
• Check the aggregation function used in the measure to ensure that it is appropriate for the data being analyzed.

Best Regards,
