Hi All,
I am trying to show difference between average of top 3 customers value and customer value selected in slicer for a particular selected quarter using below formula which is working fine.
The challenge I am facing is if the selected Customer is in top 3 or if the differnce we derived is a negative value then we should not display the result
var y = CALCULATE( SUMX(TOPN(3, ALLSELECTED(Master[Customer Name]), [Total_value], DESC),Master[Total_value]),ALL(Master[Broker Name]))
var x =
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( Master[Customer Name] )
= SELECTEDVALUE (Master[Customer Name]),
CALCULATE (
VAR _seleYear =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Slicer Table'[Year] )
VAR _seleQuar =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Slicer Table'[Quarter] )
RETURN
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE( Master[Year] ) = _seleYear
&& SELECTEDVALUE( Master[Quarter]) = _seleQuar,
SUM ( Master[Total] ))
)
)
return (y/3)-x
Can someone please suggest on how to achieve this.
Thanks in advance

Hi @Anonymous ,
According to your description, your problem is if the selected Customer is in top 3 or if the result is a negative value then return blank. Here's my solution.
Modify the formula.
Measure =
VAR y =
CALCULATE (
SUMX (
TOPN ( 3, ALLSELECTED ( Master[Customer Name] ), [Total_value], DESC ),
Master[Total_value]
),
ALL ( Master[Broker Name] )
)
VAR x =
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( Master[Customer Name] )
= SELECTEDVALUE ( Master[Customer Name] ),
CALCULATE (
VAR _seleYear =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Slicer Table'[Year] )
VAR _seleQuar =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Slicer Table'[Quarter] )
RETURN
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( Master[Year] ) = _seleYear
&& SELECTEDVALUE ( Master[Quarter] ) = _seleQuar,
SUM ( Master[Total] )
)
)
)
VAR _Top =
SELECTCOLUMNS (
TOPN ( 3, ALL ( 'Master' ), 'Master'[Total_value] ),
"Customer", [Customer Name]
)
RETURN
IF (
COUNTROWS (
FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Master' ), 'Master'[Customer Name] IN _Top )
) > 0,
BLANK (),
IF ( ( y / 3 ) - x < 0, BLANK (), ( y / 3 ) - x )
)
As you say, your original formula works partly, I only create a sample to verify the condition "if the selected Customer is in top 3":
Get correct result.
I attach my sample below for your reference.
