Create new Table calculating Balances

Hello,

 

Does anyone know how to create a table in Power BI by calculating the balance of customers?

 

I have a customer table, it contains Invoices and payments.   If you Subtract the payments from the invoice that is the current balance.

 

So what formula woud I Use to create a new table with only customers that have a balance?

 

In the table below I have several Customers, only 1 has a balance. I want to create a table that ONLY has that 1 customer with a balance.

I’m not sure which columns in your provided table are Invoices and Payments, so I just test with following table. You can create a measure for Balance first and then use CALCULATETABLE Function to create a table only includes customers with balance.

 

Create new Table calculating Balances_1.jpg

 

Balance =
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table1[Invoices] ), ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Customer] ) )
- CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table1[Payments] ), ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[Customer] ) )
HasBalance = 
CALCULATETABLE ( Table1, FILTER ( Table1, [Balance] > 0 ) )

You should just have to filter your table visualization by Amount greater than 0
