Dynamic Budgeting Tool
I am currently trying to build a dynamic budgeting tool for an energy company. With oil prices being so low currently this company would like to have the ability to "turn off" a well to help determine what is economic and what is not. So if a well is selected in a slicer I would like to set its value to zero while keeping the others the same. Is it possible to do that through a measure?
Thank you in advanvce!
Hi TheCAKurtle ，
1. Create a slicer table,put the categories in the column:
2.Delete the relationship between table and the slicer table:
3.Create a measure as below:
Measure = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('slicer table'[category])=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Category]),0,'Table'[Ratio])Finally you will see:
Is the above what you need?
Here is my sample .pbix file you can refer to.

It is really tough to say without seeing the data but maybe something along the lines of:
Measure = VAR __Selected = 'Table' VAR __UnSelected = EXCEPT(ALL('Table'),__Selected) RETURN SUMX(__UnSelected,[Column])So basically, you grab everybody in context within the slicer (__Selected). You then get everyone (ALL) and then filter out __Selected using EXCEPT. Then you just SUMX across __UnSelected for some Column. And you have effectively wiped out any impact from the "selected" wells, in effect, setting their values to zero.
Thanks for the quick reply. I am using this calculation to feed into several others so from this I get a ratio for how much production a particular well contributes which is then used to allocate costs. When a wells production goes to 0 I would like those ratios to be recalculated so that costs can be reallocated. I don't think this solution will work for that... Or am I mistaken?
I have no idea if it will work or not because I have zero sense of the data. Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490
