Helper IICreating a measure with IF statement
Hi everyone,
I have a dataset that looks like this
I have a list of companies where their "Status of deal" changes over time. What I want to create is this:
I want to create a measure whereby if a company has ever been active, return "Yes", else, return "No". I want to then display this in a card. I can't figure out a way to do this yet. I tried creating a conditional column but it returns the "Yes" or "No" by column, and not by Company Name.
Would appreciate any input.
Thanks
Add a new column like
Is Active = var cnt =countx(filter(table,table[company]=earlier(table[company]) && (table[company]="Active" Or ealier(table[company]="Active"))),table[company]) return if(cnt>0,"Yes","No")Appreciate your Kudos. In case, this is the solution you are looking for, mark it as the Solution.
In case it does not help, please provide additional information and mark me with @

rjsidek Well in the proper data model you would have a Company table with distinct company names and that table would be related to the Company History table (the one you have now). Then it would be simple to create a new column in the Company table using COUNTROWS(FILTER...

Can you elaborate a bit on how I would be able to achieve this?
