Calculate Quartile 1 based on user selection

Hi All,

I have a requirement to calculate Percentile (Quartile1) for all the employees in same Line of Business and at same management level (peer) for a metric (Utilization) when filtered on a particular Employee name (consider its LineofBusinessLinkKey when filtered on a particular employee) as shown below:

Saloni_Gupta_1-1737996269503.png

So, in the above screenshot, If user selects Amar, then calculate Quartile 1 for the utilization values for Consulting:Senior Associate.

this is my dax

Utilization - 25th Quartile =
var selectedemployeeloblinkey = CALCULATE(MAX('Employee Info'[LineofBusinessLinkKey]),'Employee Info'[Full Name] = SELECTEDVALUE('Employee Info'[Full Name]))
VAR FilteredData = ALLEXCEPT('Employee Info','Employee Info'[Employee Id])
var LoBQuartile1 = PERCENTILEX.INC(FilteredData, CALCULATE([Utilization],'Employee Info'[LineofBusinessLinkKey] = selectedemployeeloblinkey),0.25)
RETURN LoBQuartile1

I am not sure what is wrong with this dax but not getting results because of the expression :CALCULATE([Utilization],'Employee Info'[LineofBusinessLinkKey] = selectedemployeesubloslinkey).

Can you please help correct the dax. Thanks in Advance!

Hi @Saloni_Gupta 

Please try the following Dax:


Utilization - 25th Quartile =
VAR SelectedEmployeeName = SELECTEDVALUE('Employee Info'[Full Name])
VAR SelectedEmployeeLOB =
    CALCULATE(
        MAX('Employee Info'[LineofBusinessLinkKey]),
        'Employee Info'[Full Name] = SelectedEmployeeName
    )
VAR Peers =
    FILTER(
        ALL('Employee Info'),
        'Employee Info'[LineofBusinessLinkKey] = SelectedEmployeeLOB
    )
VAR Quartile1 =
    PERCENTILEX.INC(
        Peers,
        [Utilization],
        0.25
    )
RETURN Quartile1
