I have 2 data tabels and want to calculate a delta and give a conditional formatting to it. Only the last thing is not working.
How should I do this?
DataSet1:
KPI | Value |
Name 1 | 100 |
DataSet 2:
KPI | Value |
Name 1 | 57 |
Measures:
KPI 1 = CALCULATE(SUM(DataSet1[Value]);(DataSet1[KPI]="Name 1"))
KPI 2 = CALCULATE(SUM(DataSet2[Value]);(DataSet2[KPI]="Name 1"))
KPIdelta = [KPI 1] - [KPI 2]
Visual table:
Solved! Go to Solution.
hi, @Anonymous
It starts working as soon as you add a column DataSet1[KPI] in there. I believe there needs to be a categorical variable in there even if it has only 1 value.
In your case, you could create a relationship between DataSet1 and DataSet2 by KPI field.
Then drag column DataSet1[KPI] into visual
