Hi,
I want to create a dynamic measure. I have various colunm with values, whose name is Jar, for example, Color Jar, Smell Jar, Aftertaste Jar, Fizziness Jar etc.
I created this measure:
Measure Color = VAR color = DIVIDE(COUNTA('consumer'[Color JAR]), CALCULATE(COUNTA('consumer'[Color JAR]), ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) RETURN color
And i've this table with these fields:
and I wanted to add everything in the same table, that is, at the moment for each Jar I have a table, a table for the Jar color, another for the Jar smell, but I wanted to create a dynamic metric that aggregates all the metrics of type:
GENERIC MEASURE = VAR color = DIVIDE(COUNTA('consumer'[Color JAR]), CALCULATE('consumer'[count color jar], ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) VAR smell = DIVIDE(COUNTA('consumer'[Smell JAR]), CALCULATE('consumer'[count smell jar], ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) VAR taste = DIVIDE(COUNTA('consumer'[Taste strength JAR]), CALCULATE(COUNTA(consumer[Color JAR]), ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) VAR fizziness = DIVIDE(COUNTA('consumer'[Fizziness JAR]), CALCULATE(COUNTA(consumer[Fizziness JAR]), ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) VAR bitterness = DIVIDE(COUNTA(consumer[Bitterness JAR]), CALCULATE(COUNTA(consumer[Bitterness JAR]), ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) VAR alcohol = DIVIDE(COUNTA(consumer[Alcoholc Leval JAR]), CALCULATE(COUNTA(consumer[Alcoholc Leval JAR]), ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) VAR aftertaste = DIVIDE(COUNTA(consumer[Aftertaste Liking]), CALCULATE(COUNTA(consumer[Aftertaste Liking]), ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) VAR refreshing = DIVIDE(COUNTA(consumer[Refreshing]), CALCULATE(COUNTA(consumer[Refreshing]), ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 ) VAR easy = DIVIDE(COUNTA(consumer[Refreshing]), CALCULATE(COUNTA(consumer[Easy to drink]), ALLEXCEPT(consumer, consumer[preference])), 0 )
It's possible?
Kind regards.
