Greetings to one and all.
I've got a situation where I've got a measure to calculate factor / population * observations (w/n*o)
This is perfect when I have area by age group (left hand visual)....
But if I drop out the age group then the measure calculates based on the totals but ignores the factor so the figures are slightly out. Each age group has a percentage factor and these 2 age groups are 5.5% and 6% so the difference in this situation is subtle.
Instead of getting the measure to recalculate I essentially need to get the rows to add up correctly
ie Area 1 should be 19; Area 3 should be 14 etc etc.
Any help would be appreciated. My DAX is mediocre.
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
@saj try this:
New Measure = SUMX ( VALUES ( YourTable[AgeGroupColumn] ), [YourExistingMeasure] )
use the above measure in your visual instead of the one you are using right now and it should work.

@parry2k awesome....
Thanks for that, that's the trick. Now to really get my head around what it's doing.
It feels like a sum of a sum but grouped by the age group.
Ka pow....
Thanks again.
