Conditional sums based on another measure

Hi all, 

 

Here is the data. 

 

I want to be able to compute a % of cost (cout) on sales (ventes) in two different ways:

1) within the Period (2023-P10) for exemple, straight out of the box.  (Sum cout) / Ventes. 

2) if the cost is 0 I do not want to compute the % and I do not want to add neither the cost or the Ventes to the yearly total. 

 

Any ideas...  Thanks

  • Hi, francoisl 

     

    I've simply modelled some data to hopefully fit your situation.

    If [Sales], [Cost], and [%] are all measures, you can try the following.

    M1 = 
    Var _blankDate=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Date]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Cost]=0))
    Return
    IF(HASONEVALUE('Table'[Date]),[Sales],SUMX(FILTER('Table',[Date]<>_blankDate),[Sales]))
    M2 = 
    Var _blankDate=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Date]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Cost]=0))
    Return
    IF(HASONEVALUE('Table'[Date]),[Cost],SUMX(FILTER('Table',[Date]<>_blankDate),[Cost]))
    M% = 
    Var _blankDate=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Date]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Cost]=0))
    Return
    IF(HASONEVALUE('Table'[Date]),[%],DIVIDE([M2],[M1]))

    Is this the result you expect? Please see the attached document.

    can you give an example of what you are expecting?

     

    then also provide some sample data with desired outcome.  This will help to ensure your problem is fully understood.

     

    you can either copy and paste text data with an example what you are expecting.

      Of Course. 

      Here's a table with data.  

       

      The total should only be totals based on the period where the cost <> 0. Meaning we want to ignore any periods that have a 0$ cost.  

       

      At this point it ignores only fiscal period P8.

       

      Many thanks

        is this how the table looks in power bi?  are the periods column names?
