DAX question

Hi,

 

i have a dataset with some columns whereas my problem is only with the following ones:

 

projectid   operation  value

1           1          50

1           2          50

1           3          50

2           1          70

2           2          70

 

When i create a diagram  and put the project id on the axis and the value as valu, it sums up the values per project. However, I only want to have one time 50 or 70 per project. Can I achieve this with a measure?

 

Thx Christian

I think that you can use this, if I understand this correctly 

Remainder = 
SUMX(
    SUMMARIZE(
        Table,
        Table[project],
        Table[engineer],
        "Remainder",AVERAGE(Table[remainder(project)])
    ),
    [Remainder]
)

Hi,

 

Instead of SUM you can use MAX, MIN, AVERAGE, etc. if the value is always the same for the project. I.e.
Function Name = MAX(Table[value]).

 

Regards,

Kristjan

Thx, however, i am afraid my question was not good enough

 

project  operation engineer remainder(project)

1        1         a         10

1        2         a         10

2        1         a          5

2        2         a          5

3        1         b         20

3        1         b         20

 

I want to see the remainng work per engineer in a diagram => a=10+5, b=20

Sorry for not having asked the right question in the fiirst go.

Ok, but what is the rationale for choosing 10+5 and not 10+5+10+5 for a?

Is it one value per project?  Otherwise, what?
