Creating new column for Revenue doesn't work

Hello,

 

 

I'm trying to create a new column in the table section to calculate the revenue using the new column and the formula 

Revenue = sales[Units] * sales[Price] but it doesn't follow my command after clicking enter. What seems to be the issue?

HI @KatjaPosohin.

 

Can you try below steps please.

 

  1. In a calculated column inside the same table, you only need to use [price] * [units] no table prefix required.

  2. Make sure both [price] and [units] are numeric types, not text. Even if they look like numbers, Power BI might treat them as text.

Once both parts are correct, the formula should work perfectly.

Hi,

That calculated column formula seems correct.  Share the download link of the PBI file.

Hello @KatjaPosohin 
Can you try below DAX code.. 

Revenue = Sumx('Sales','Sales'[Units] * 'Sales'[Price] ) 

Let me know if it is working or not.
