Hey there,   I am displaying data in a stacked-column chart that can either be viewed by countries, or if we drill down, by cities. I have drill-down activated on the chart, and so if I click on o...

    Hi julienvdc ,

     

    Please check:

     

    Sample data:

     

    Country City Product Value
    Country1 City1-1 Product1 1
    Country1 City1-2 Product1 2
    Country1 City1-3 Product1 3
    Country1 City1-4 Product1 4
    Country2 City2-1 Product1 5
    Country2 City2-2 Product1 6
    Country2 City2-3 Product1 7
    Country2 City2-4 Product1 8
    Country3 City3-1 Product1 9
    Country3 City3-2 Product1 10
    Country3 City3-3 Product1 11
    Country3 City3-4 Product1 12
    Country1 City1-1 Product2 12
    Country1 City1-2 Product2 11
    Country1 City1-3 Product2 10
    Country1 City1-4 Product2 9
    Country2 City2-1 Product2 8
    Country2 City2-2 Product2 7
    Country2 City2-3 Product2 6
    Country2 City2-4 Product2 5
    Country3 City3-1 Product2 4
    Country3 City3-2 Product2 3
    Country3 City3-3 Product2 2
    Country3 City3-4 Product2 1

     

     

    1. Create a x-axis table.

    X axis = 
VAR Country_ = DISTINCT('Table'[Country])
VAR City_ = DISTINCT('Table'[City])
RETURN UNION(Country_,City_)

     

    2. Create relationships between "Table" and "X axis" table.

     

    3. Create a measure.

    Measure =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[Country] ),
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        USERELATIONSHIP ( 'Table'[City], 'X axis'[Country] )
    ),
    SUM ( 'Table'[Value] )
)

     

    4. Create a Stacked column chart visual.

     

    5. Test.

     

     

    Best Regards,

    Hey Icey ,

     

    Amazing! From the look of that last .gif that is what I am looking for!

     

    I am just not too sure I understand what that measure is doing. Could you describe it to me?

     

    I forgot to mention that my data is organized into 2 tables:

     

    There is the product table...

    EX:

    Product IDBrandLocation ID
    1Lenovo30
    3Dell34

     

     

    and the there is the location table which mixes countries and cities

    EX:

    Location IDCityCountry
    30AthensGreece
    34ParisFrance
    1 France

     

    Does that make sense?

      Hi julienvdc ,

       

       

      I am just not too sure I understand what that measure is doing. Could you describe it to me?

       

      Measure =
      IF (
      ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[Country] ),

      ----------------Judge whether a country is selected with the slicer.
      CALCULATE (
      SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
      USERELATIONSHIP ( 'Table'[City], 'X axis'[Country] )
      ),

      --------------------------If one country is selected, calculate value based on the inactive relationship('X axis'[Country] -> 'Table'[City]).
      SUM ( 'Table'[Value] )

      -----------if no country is selected, calculate value based on the active relationship ('X axis'[Country] -> 'Table'[Country]).
      )

       

       

       

      I forgot to mention that my data is organized into 2 tables:

       

      There is the product table...

      EX:

      Product ID Brand Location ID
      1 Lenovo 30
      3 Dell 34

       

       

      and the there is the location table which mixes countries and cities

      EX:

      Location ID City Country
      30 Athens Greece
      34 Paris France
      1   France

       

      With right relationships, this doesn't make any difference.

       

      Do I explain clearly?

       

       

      Best Regards,

      Icey
