Dax Measure

I need help with a measure to get result as shown below in column Balance.  If there is no value in Credit column then I dont want to show YTD balance. The measure that I have is 

 

IF(Table1[Credit]=BLANK(),BLANK(),Table1[Debit]-Table2[Credit])

 

which is giving me blanks where the value is 0.

HI @NishPatel,

You can try to use the following measure formula if it suitable for your requirement:

VarianceMeasure =
VAR currDate =
    MAX ( DebitTable[Date] )
RETURN
    IF (
        [CreditMeasure] = BLANK (),
        SUMX (
            SUMMARIZE (
                FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( DebitTable ), [Date] <= currDate ),
                [Month],
                [Date],
                "Debit", SUM ( DebitTable[Amount] ),
                "Credit",
                    CALCULATE (
                        SUM ( CreditTable[Amount] ),
                        FILTER (
                            ALLSELECTED ( CreditTable ),
                            CreditTable[Date] IN VALUES ( DebitTable[Date] )
                        )
                    )
            ),
            [Debit] - [Credit]
        ),
        [DebitMeasure] - [CreditMeasure]
    )

Hi @NishPatel 

 

I think the general problem is that you work with two different tables and want to build a measure without aggregation functions.

 

Can you please share your data model with a picture as well as the structure of table 1 and table 2. Do you use an additional date table?

 

Best regards

Michael

Hi Mike, First of all thank you for taking your time to help me out here. Because of the confidentiality of the data, I am unable to share my original table/pbix file. But below are the sample data tables that I have created which are almost similar to my data. Month Table is join by month with other two tables. And I have below 3 measure as well.

DebitMeasure = CALCULATE(SUM(DebitTable[Amount]),SUMMARIZE(DebitTable, DebitTable [Month]))

CreditMeasure = CALCULATE(SUM(CreditTable[Amount]),SUMMARIZE(CreditTable, DebitTable [Month]))

VarianceMeasure =  IF(CreditTable[CreditMeasure]=BLANK(),BLANK(),DebitTable[DebitMeasure])-CreditTable[CreditMeasure])

 

Thanks again.
