Dynamic Table - Part 3 adding TAU Value

Hi Experts

 

1 m referring to the folloiwing Kendall's Tau Quick Measure here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Quick-Measures-Gallery/Kendall-s-Tau/m-p/625107.

 

This is a calculation that ws created by a Super User on this forum by Greg Deckler.

 

I am trying to re create the same calculation using my dataset. Sample file attached. I am trying to get the TAU Gregs link using data from the link below. The values i would like to use from my data set are Material_id and FISCAL_MON_START_DT as the two variables. Which find these in the main FACT table PMS_Complaints. 

 

Please refer to tab Post Market Surveillance Trending

https://www.dropbox.com/s/i0nffe5gso2d684/Sample__.pbix?dl=0

 

This is the last measuer i am trying to work out. 

below is the real world example of this calculation see value I8 the tau.mannkandelltau.PNG

        VALUES ( PMS_COMPLAINT[FISCAL_MON_START_DT] ),

        "__Index", RANKX ( PMS_COMPLAINT, PMS_COMPLAINT[FISCAL_MON_START_DT],,, DENSE )
    ),
    [FISCAL_MON_START_DT] <> BLANK ()
)

@Anonymous link to Quick Measure is not working, can you repost to check what is it and how it can be used in your model.

Hi Perry2k

 

The answer lie with the greg decker link on how you can implement the measure....he uses two variables and sorts the data interviewer 1 and 2. I want to implement the same principles with my data using variables as I mentioned in above post...

 

I have created a table called table in the new link (new file uploaded), i am trying to create measures for Concordant and Discordant as greg did and then work out the Tau.

See Table in new link below

My Index column is my FISCAL_MON_START_DT

and My interviewer 2 is my Material_ID 

 

So far i have (which is not correct)

Tau = 
VAR Mytable = ADDCOLUMNS(VALUES(PMS_COMPLAINT[FISCAL_MON_START_DT]),"CountComplaints", CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(PMS_COMPLAINT)))
VAR __table1 = ADDCOLUMNS(Mytable,"__Concordant",COUNTROWS(FILTER(Mytable,[FISCAL_MON_START_DT]>EARLIER([FISCAL_MON_START_DT])&&[CountComplaints]>EARLIER([CountComplaints]))))
VAR __table2 = ADDCOLUMNS(__table1,"__Discordant",COUNTROWS(FILTER(Mytable,[FISCAL_MON_START_DT]>EARLIER([FISCAL_MON_START_DT])&&[CountComplaints]<EARLIER([CountComplaints]))))

VAR __C = SUMX(__table1,[__Concordant])
VAR __D = SUMX(__table2,[__Discordant])

RETURN

ABS(DIVIDE(__C - __D , __C + __D,0))

It's not a quick measures answer.
