Hi Experts
Looking at the attached screen output how would you do the following calculation in DAX.
i want to be able to work out H5 = H4*G5 and populate that down in a column in my table.

Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
One sample for your reference, please check the following steps as below.
1. Insert an index column in power query.
2. Create a calculated column as below.
H =
PRODUCTX(FILTER('Table','Table'[Index] <=EARLIER('Table'[Index])),[1-d/n])

Here is no answer to this question. DAX formulas always depend on the table structure. You need to learn to layout a visual so that you get visual cues similar to what you are used to in Excel. Have a look at my article -it should help you with the concept (not the answer - you will need to work through the problem)

thanks matt for the heads up, this is tricky as hell. 2 hours down and no solution.
Hi Matt
if my row where not filter as per pivot table using teh following dax. Should i get a constant answer as opposed to increment of 1 to last row in table i.e. 1, 2 , 3, 4, etc until 2788. i am see 2788 for each row.
FilteredRows =
VAR LatestYear =
MAX ( Rates[Year] )
VAR UnfilteredTable =
ALL ( Rates )
RETURN
COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( UnfilteredTable, Rates[Year] <= LatestYear ) )
