Calculate sum for a measure from another table.

Hello PB Community and super guru's i,e @Ahmedx , @lbendlin 

 

I need 1 DAX / Measure to achieve the following

1. find the Min value from an existing measure (Actual Avg TMAX RZ)

2. find the Max value from an existing measure (Actual Avg TMAX RZ)

3. Difference between Max and Min from point 1 & 2

4. Multiply the Difference (from point 3) by the measure (Total Run time) filtering by values from 1.

HI @wasirafi,

 

I do't understand why max = 480 and not 481 but if that is a mistake you might try with the following measure:

_result = 
VAR _min = 
CALCULATE(
    MIN(v_run[Actual Avg TMAX RZ]),
    ALL(v_run[Actual Avg TMAX RZ])
)
VAR _max = 
CALCULATE(
    MAX(v_run[Actual Avg TMAX RZ]),
    ALL(v_run[Actual Avg TMAX RZ])
)
VAR _runTime = 
CALCULATE(
    [_Total Run Time],
    v_run[Actual Avg TMAX RZ] = _min
)
RETURN _runTime * (_max - _min)

Hey Wini_R.

 

Yes that was a typo. the DAX worked exactly as i wanted. Thank you

You cannot measure a measure directly. Either materialize it first, or create a separate measure that implements the entire business logic.

Ibendlin,

Yes you are right. i am requesting only 1 measure that applies this entire logic. I called them out as measures just for the sake to notify the basic level of efforts i have done so far.
