Solved

sumx with multiple criteria

Hello, not sure why my sumx is not working. Not giving me an error but giving no data?

Trying to sum FDM, FEJ, FJH. All 3 criteria fall under the same column. 
Any help would be apprecaited!

    Hi Alxnder ,

     

    Thanks for the reply from HotChilli .

     

    There are some problems with your syntax. You should use || instead of &&, because Grade cannot be FDM, FEJ, and FJH at the same time.

     

    Try this:

    Fancy total = 
SUMX(
    FILTER('PackoutDetails',
    'PackoutDetails'[Grade] = "FDM" || 'PackoutDetails'[Grade] = "FEJ" || 'PackoutDetails'[Grade] = "FJH"
    ),
    'PackoutDetails'[Quantity]
)

     

    The final page visual effect is as follows:

     

    I would be grateful if you could provide me with the pbix file or sample data.

     

    Remember to remove sensitive data and do not log in to your account in Power BI Desktop when uploading the pbix file.

     

    If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me.

     

    The pbix file is attached.

    The way you solve something like this is to use just the Filter part without SUMX and instead use COUNTROWS. Put that on a card visual.

    See what value you get.

    If you get blank, remove all the filter conditions except 1.  Then see if you get a value.  If you do, add one filter condition back in and see what happens.  If you get blank again, re-examine what the filter is doing.
