I have this forumla in Spotfire, Min(if([section]="red" and [category]="high",[depth])) over ([area],[block]). How can I write Dax for this in Power Bi?

Hi @feiwu2024 ,
Thanks for the reply from @lbendlin .
“Min(if([section]=”red“ and [category]=”high“,[depth])) over ([area],[block])” seems to calculate the minimum depth for records whose section is “red” and category is “high”, and group them by area and block.
Replace it with the syntax of DAX measure:
MinDepth =
CALCULATE(
MIN(Table[depth]),
FILTER(
Table,
Table[section] = "red" && Table[category] = "high"
),
ALLEXCEPT(Table, Table[area], Table[block])
)
You can learn more about these functions from the official documentation below:
CALCULATE function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
MIN function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
FILTER function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
ALLEXCEPT function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me.
