Condition Formula

Does anyone know how I can embed the following formula 100(sum(KPI1)/sum(KPI1_COUNT))* as a new column. With the sum being based on each unique "Applicant_Company" and "Work_Area" and each month (See below)

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

According to my understanding , you want to calculate SUM(KPI1)/SUM(KPI1_COUNT) based on three categories,right?

 

You could use EARLIER() or ALLEXCEPT() function shown below:

Column =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[KPI1] ) / SUM ( 'Table'[KPI1_COUNT] ),
    FILTER (
        'Table',
        'Table'[Applicant_Company] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Applicant_Company] )
            && 'Table'[Work_Area] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Work_Area] )
            && 'Table'[Date].[MonthNo] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Date].[MonthNo] )
    )
)
Column 2 =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[KPI1] ) / SUM ( 'Table'[KPI1_COUNT] ),
    ALLEXCEPT (
        'Table',
        'Table'[Applicant_Company],
        'Table'[Work_Area],
        'Table'[Date].[MonthNo]
    )
)

Here is the final output :

Please take a look at the pbix file here.

Hi thats great thanks! can I ask, if both the KPI1 and KPI_COUNT columns are 0, do you know how within the formula I can put a IF clause which will make the calculation revert to 100?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

The DIVIDE() function was designed to automatically handle division by zero cases.

 

See the differences between DIVIDE() and / here.

Not sure I follow exacly, maybe you could knock up a mock table to show what you currently have and what the expected result would be with the additional column?
