Error creating a lookupvalue from a DAX table
Hello Community,
I am trying to lookupvalue from one table into another table both Tables were created with using Summarizecolumns function as shown below.
And the reason I am using the Summarizecolumns is that they make my model run faster.
The data used to mimic my scenario is avaiable on this link -> https://community.tableau.com/s/question/0D54T00000CWeX8SAL/sample-superstore-sales-excelxls
Table1
Table1 = SUMMARIZECOLUMNS(
Orders[Customer ID],
Orders[Category],
Orders[City],
Orders[Country],
Orders[Order ID],
"Sum of discount",sum(Orders[Discount])
)
Table2
Segmenttable = SUMMARIZECOLUMNS(
Orders[Customer ID],
Orders[Country],
Orders[City],
"Sum of Sales",SUM(Orders[Sales])
)
Lookupvalue query
LOOKUPVALUE('Table'[Sum of discount],'Table'[Customer ID],Segmenttable[Customer ID])
I get this error
A table of mutiple values was supplied where single value was expected.
I humbly appreciate ideas to resolve this issue.
Thank you.
Anonymous , Try a new column like
sumx(filter('Table', 'Table'[Customer ID] = Segmenttable[Customer ID]), 'Table'[Sum of discount])
