Active and Inactive Relationships help!

[GuidoPinares]

Hi Community,

Thanks for any help!

I have the following data schema:

I would like as a result All Prescribers that doesnt exists in "OActivities" and "Activities" Tables, but they exists in "Sales" Table. By now I solved it as following:

Measures: 

OActivity DropIn = CALCULATE(COUNT(OActivities[OActivityID]),USERELATIONSHIP(OActivities[PrescriberID],Prescribers[PrescriberID]))

Activity Filter

= CALCULATE(COUNT(Activities[ActivityID]),USERELATIONSHIP(Activities[PrescriberID],Prescribers[PrescriberID]))

QuantityDispensed

= SUM(Sales[quantitydispensed])

and then I used the filters to check if "quantityDispensed" is greater than 0 (this means that they exists in Sales Table), and If Activities are blank (this means that they doesnt exists in neither OActivities nor Activities Tables)

Its working by now, but it is too slow (even with 5000 test prescribers). Also, when I increase the prescribers to more than 10,000 the visual breaks and show me the "Insufficient memory error".

I was thinking of maybe would be better to add a Boolean custom column that will do this check and return a true or false, then i can filter this column to show only the True ones (The ones that fits with the criteria), but im not sure how to do this.

Any other recommendation will be very welcome!

Thanks in advance!

Hi @GuidoPinares ,

You can create a measure [Flag] as below and apply a visual-level filter with the codition ([Flag] is 1😞

Flag =
VAR _selpres =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( Prescribers[PrescriberID] )
VAR _oactabs =
    UNION (
        VALUES ( OActivities[PrescriberID] ),
        VALUES ( Activities[PrescriberID] )
    )
VAR _selestab =
    VALUES ( Sales[PrescriberID] )
RETURN
    IF ( NOT ( _selpres ) IN _oactabs && _selpres IN _selestab, 1, 0 )

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide more raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.

@GuidoPinares , Prescribers is a dimension, it should not join with another dimension employee. Also avoid Bi-Directional join

In case you want just to filter the slicer based on employee refer
