I have a data model in PowerBI which consists of a Fact Table and a dimesnion
For simplicity sake ill call it Fact and Dimension.
Fact:
FactID | DimesnionID | Value | DateTime |
1 | 1 | 0 | 1/1/2019 08:01 |
2 | 1 | 1 | 2/1/2019 08:02 |
3 | 2 | 1 | 3/1/2019 08:03 |
4 | 1 | 1 | 4/1/2019 08:15 |
5 | 3 | 1 | 5/1/2019 08:30 |
6 | 3 | 0 | 6/1/2019 08:45 |
7 | 3 | 1 | 7/1/2019 08:00 |
Dimesnion
DimensionID | Name |
1 | A |
2 | B |
3 | C |
4 | D |
5 | E |
6 | F |
7 | G |
The relationship between these 2 tables are dimesnionid on dimensionid
Now I need to create a Summarize statement like the following:
Table = SUMMARIZE ( 'Fact', 'Dimension'[Name], "Value",SUM('Fact'[Value]) )
Now this seems to work as a once off.
But now when i filter the date on the front end in a filter. The values of the calculated table does not adjust according to the filter.
So ideally I would like a solution where the summarize statement is based on the filtered set of data on the fact and not the full dataset.
So When i filter the datetime on the report. The table must recalculate based on a new subset of Fact Records.
Im stuck.
Please help.

Solved! Go to Solution.
@Arnoux ,
Power bi doesn't support dynamic calculate column/table so I'm afraid this can't be achieved. Filters/Slicer charts are in view level while the summarized table is in model level, in power bi, view level can't filter data in model level.
