Can´t get the IF-statement to do what i want

[JohannesM]

Hi,

I would like to get the sum of the field "Value" for each year where the "Year" equals "ValueYear". But if "Year" is bigger than the biggest "ValueYear" then use "Value" from the rows with the biggest "ValueYear". So in this case below both 2021 and 2022 would show 506 as a result.

I tried this but it only triggers "FinnsEj"

SumValue =
VAR Finns = CALCULATE(SUMX('Meters', 'Meters'[Value]), FILTER('Meters', 'Meters'[ValueYear]= 'Meters'[Year]))
VAR FinnsEj = CALCULATE(SUMX('Meters', 'Meters'[Value]), FILTER('Meters', 'Meters'[ValueYear]= MAX('Meters'[ValueYear])))
RETURN
IF(SUMX('Meters', 'Meters'[Year]) > MAXX('Meters', 'Meters'[ValueYear]), FinnsEj, Finns)

Table: Meters

Meter	year	part	ValueYear	Value
1337	2022	H2	2021	253
1337	2022	H1	2021	253
1337	2022	H1	2019	238
1337	2022	H2	2019	238
1337	2022	H2	2017	222
1337	2022	H1	2017	222
1337	2022	H1	2020	239
1337	2022	H2	2020	239
1337	2022	H2	2018	230
1337	2022	H1	2018	230
1337	2021	H1	2021	506
1337	2021	H2	2021	506
1337	2021	H2	2019	475
1337	2021	H1	2019	475
1337	2021	H1	2017	444
1337	2021	H2	2017	444
1337	2021	H1	2020	477
1337	2021	H2	2020	477
1337	2021	H1	2018	459
1337	2021	H2	2018	459

 Thanks in advance!

Thanks for this tidy solution 😃

@JohannesM , if this is a column, then try like

a new column
SumValue =
VAR Finns = CALCULATE(SUMX('Meters', 'Meters'[Value]), FILTER('Meters', 'Meters'[ValueYear]= earlier('Meters'[Year])))
VAR FinnsEj = CALCULATE(SUMX('Meters', 'Meters'[Value]), FILTER('Meters', 'Meters'[ValueYear]= MAX('Meters'[ValueYear])))
RETURN
IF('Meters'[Year] > 'Meters'[ValueYear], FinnsEj, Fin)

Hi and thanks,

I tried it as a column but got some kind of total for every row. Also, I would like to have it as a measure instead of a new column if possible. But at this rate I would take a new column solution if that fixes things 😃
