DAX - Default Filter & ALLEXCEPT

I'm very new in Power BI, and I've written the following DAX and only part of it is working as desired:   Total Runs Global = IF( [CurrentSelectionsToolType]=[TotalSelectionsToolType], CALCU...

    Thank you so much for your prompt reply. I had a colleague helping that solved the issue.

     

    His solution: Please check the below measures, instead of using single measure I have separated 'pbi sensor_data'[Tool Type]="ABI" filter into separate measure named ABISensorRuns. Then I used new measure ABISensorRuns in Total Runs Global measure.

     

    ABISensorRuns = CALCULATE(

            sum('pbi sensor_data'[Sensor Runs]),

            FILTER('pbi sensor_data','pbi sensor_data'[Tool Type]="ABI"))

     

    Total Runs Global =

    IF(

        [CurrentSelectionsToolType]=[TotalSelectionsToolType],

         CALCULATE(

            [ABISensorRuns],ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[Region]),

                ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[Country]),ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[Area]),

                ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[District])

          ),

        CALCULATE(sum('pbi sensor_data'[Sensor Runs]),ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[Region]),

                ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[Country]),ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[Area]),

                ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[District])

    ))

Hi LaurieS,

Could you please share the sample data and expected result to us? According to your description, my understanding is that you have two rules, one is ignoring all location slicers, another one is setting the default tool type as ABI.

In this scenario, we can use the following DAX query:

Total Runs Global =

IF(

    SELECTEDVALUE('pbi luLocations'[Tool Type])=BLANK(),

    CALCULATE(SUM('pbi luLocations'[Sensor Runs]),FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[Other]),'pbi luLocations'[Tool Type] = "ABI")),

    CALCULATE(SUM('pbi luLocations'[Sensor Runs]),ALLEXCEPT('pbi luLocations','pbi luLocations'[Other],'pbi luLocations'[Tool Type])

))

The result will like below:

Best Regards,

Teige
