Hi everyone,
I created a DAX formula which returns a flag « X » on certain rows.
Now I would like to calculate the sum of the rows that have the flag by year. I created this formula but it doesn't work :

Thank you for your help.

Hi PBI_37,
I was able to return the correct value, if I understood your intention.
Try this measure instead for your Total Sales with Flag:
Total Sales with Flag =
VAR YearMonth =
SUMMARIZE (
'Calendar',
'Calendar'[Year], 'Calendar'[Month Name]
)
VAR SalesbyMonth =
ADDCOLUMNS (
YearMonth,
"@Flag", [Flag]
)
VAR FilteredYearMonth =
FILTER (
SalesbyMonth,
[@Flag] = "X"
)
VAR Result =
SUMX (
FilteredYearMonth,
[Total Sales]
)
RETURN Result
The reason mine works and yours doesn't is because when you put your flag in the filter condition in your measure, it is looking at every sales line and checking if the sales on that order are greater than 4,000. Mine forces it to make the check at the year/month level (like you have in your matrix).

Assez facile,
Expertise = List.Accumulate( {Days as from Today}, {Skills and Knowledge}, (Current, Everyday) => Current & Day.LeanAndPractise(Everyday) ) |
Hi,
This measure works
Total Sales with Flag = CALCULATE([Total Sales],FILTER(VALUES('Calendar'[Month Name]),[Total Sales]>4000))
You are welcome.
Thanks for the update, happy to help! 😄

For your reference.
Please try this measure below.
Total Sales with Flag = CALCULATE(SUM('Sales'[Total Sales]), FILTER(Sales, 'Sales'[Flag] = "X"))
How about this ?
Total Sales with Flag = CALCULATE([Total Sales], FILTER(SUMMARIZE(Sales,Sales[Year],Sales[Month Name],Sales[Total Sales],Sales[Flag]), [Flag] = "X"))
