Handling infinity value

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am currently using a measure to calculate Sales Rate. The calculation is as follows FactTable[X]/FactTable[Y]. The X and Y come from different Fact tables. If Y is not present for the corresponding date, I am getting a value of infinity. It would be good to have nothing show up then to have infinity value. How do I achieve this?

Thanks in advance

Found this alternative without getting 'Cannot load Visual Error', DIVIDE function

DIVIDE(numerator,denominator,0)

This is a better solution than the one that is posted as the solution. Thank you!

If FactTable[Y] is zero just display blank for example:

Measure = IF(FactTable[Y]=0,BLANK(),FactTable[X]/FactTable[Y])

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I got a solution online before I came across your post. Refer below for the solution.

IFERROR(
    [Mesaure 1]/[Mesaure 2],
    BLANK()
    )

 where Mesaure 1 is Sum(FactTable[x])and Mesaure 2 is Sum(FactTable[y])

 Found it in this blog- https://sqldusty.com/

IF Error calculation does work, however it takes a load on the memory and fails with 'cannot load visual' error. Is there an alternative to avoid this issue?
