    Hi barlevitzky,

     

    You are missing the second input in the ALLEXCEPT function.  The first is the table which you have given.  The second input should be the column.

Hi barlevitzky

 

Try this measures...

 

Total Cost = SUM(Browser[Cost]) 
Total Cost A = CALCULATE([Total Cost];ALL(Browser);Browser[Test] = "A")
Total Cost B = CALCULATE([Total Cost];ALL(Browser);Browser[Test] = "B")
SUM B / SUM A = DIVIDE([Total Cost B];[Total Cost A])

NOTE: My table is called "Browser"

 

...and this is the final result

Hi BILASolution, 

Thanks for your answer!

First, I have Page and report filters, so "ALL" Function is disabling it right?

I tried to simplify my explanation above, but I have several "Test A", for example, "TestA1" and "TestA2" and so on. 

I tried this DAX: 

Total B = CALCULATE([Total Rev],'Revenue per partner'[Test] = "Variant B -  (4146)",'Revenue per partner'[Test] = "Variant B -  (4443)",'Revenue per partner'[Test] = "Variant B -  (5141)", 'Revenue per partner'[Test] = "Variant B -  (5924)",'Revenue per partner'[Test]= "Variant B -  (5933)") 

but it returns empty cells. 

 

In Other words,

I have managed to create 2 subtotals without the general total. 

but now I want to create a new measure Subtotal A / Subtotal B . 

 

Thanks

    barlevitzky,

    Firstly, ALL function ignores all slicers and Visual/Page/Report filters.

    Secondly, please post complete data of your table and post expected result here.

    Regards,
    Lydia

      Hi Anonymous,

       

      The data looks like this

       

      :

       

      The expected result:

       

      For every string of Date+Device+Engine+Geo, I have 2 Variants so I am using a slicer for Device+Engine+Geo. 

       

      I am trying to create the column of Total D / Total C . 

       

      Thanks

        barlevitzky,

        How do you get 12 for partner B under Variant C? You also have Variant B. Based on your sample data, I creating the following measures and get the following result.

        Total C = CALCULATE(SUM(Table[Revenue]),ALLEXCEPT(Table,Table[Test]),Table[Test]="Variant C")
        Total D = CALCULATE(SUM(Table[Revenue]),ALLEXCEPT(Table,Table[Test]),Table[Test]="Variant D")
        TOTAL D/C = [Total D]/[Total C]


        Regards,
        Lydia
