Blank Total

Hi,

I have this measure

 

measure=
VAR dates =
    MAX('Posting Date'[Date] ) 
Return
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS( 'Job' ),
Filter('Duration Entry' ,
'Duration Entry'[Start DateTime Local] <= dates + 21 / 24
&& 'Duration Entry'[End DateTime Local] ='Duration Entry'[Start DateTime Local]
&& 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number] = MAX( 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number])
&& 'Duration Entry'[Parts Available Not Booked Flag] = 1
 
)
)

it returns Blank in the total, but when I remove this part :

'Duration Entry'[Entry Number] = MAX( 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number])
 
it shows the total, but it is not the correct figure because I have remove that filter. I guess this filter is causing the issue.
I want the correct total regardless of the context filter.

Can someone help?
Sorry I can't provide the pbxi file because I am using tabular model.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Based on your desccriptions, it seems that you have used three table to create this measure. So what's the relationship between these tables?

Do you mean "&& 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number] = SelectedValue( 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number])" in the following formula?

The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Could you please share some sample data (sample Excel file or screenshot as well) and the expected result to have a clear understanding of your question? I can do some tests for you.

You can save your files in some cloud sharing platforms and share the link here.

What do you get in the total row if you put in this measure?

Max Entry Number = MAX ( 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number] )

I'm wondering if it is a context problem, try adding a CALCULATE around the MAX( 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number]) )

measure =
VAR dates =
    MAX ( 'Posting Date'[Date] )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        COUNTROWS ( 'Job' ),
        FILTER (
            'Duration Entry',
            'Duration Entry'[Start DateTime Local] <= dates + 21 / 24
                && 'Duration Entry'[End DateTime Local] = 'Duration Entry'[Start DateTime Local]
                && 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number] = CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Duration Entry'[Entry Number] ) )
                && 'Duration Entry'[Parts Available Not Booked Flag] = 1
        )
    )
