Having difficulty converting Tableau measure to PowerBI Dax.

Hi,

I am in the process of converting few Tableau dashboards into Power BI but having difficulty figuring out this formula.  Can someone point me to right direction. 
 
Bounce Rate Formula : 
SUM({ FIXED [Matmovisit ID] : 
    SUM(
              IF { INCLUDE [Matmovisit ID] : SUM([interactions]) } = 1
                    THEN 1
              ELSE 0
              END
           )}
    ) / COUNT([Matmovisit ID])
 
Thanks in advance!

Hi @vswar ,

 

To convert your Tableau Bounce Rate formula into Power BI, you can use a DAX approach to replicate the functionality of Tableau's FIXED and INCLUDE functions. Here’s how to structure the formula:

 

To replicate { INCLUDE [Matmovisit ID] : SUM([interactions]) } = 1, you’ll need to calculate interactions per Matmovisit ID and flag those with only one interaction.

 

InteractionsPerVisit = 
    CALCULATE(
        SUM('Table'[Interactions]),
        ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Matmovisit ID])
    )
BounceFlag = 
    IF([InteractionsPerVisit] = 1, 1, 0)

 

 

Then, sum up the visits with only one interaction across all Matmovisit ID values.

 

TotalBounces = 
    CALCULATE(
        SUMX(
            VALUES('Table'[Matmovisit ID]),
            IF([InteractionsPerVisit] = 1, 1, 0)
        )
    )

 

Now that you have the count of bounces, you can divide by the total number of visits to get the bounce rate.

 

BounceRate = 
    DIVIDE(
        [TotalBounces],
        COUNT('Table'[Matmovisit ID]),
        0
    )

 

In summary:

  • InteractionsPerVisit calculates the total interactions per Matmovisit ID.
  • BounceFlag flags a visit as a bounce if interactions equal 1.
  • TotalBounces calculates the total bounces across all visits.
  • BounceRate divides total bounces by the total number of visits to get the bounce rate.

This should give you a similar outcome to your Tableau formula.

TotalBounces = 
    CALCULATE(
        SUMX(
            VALUES('Table'[Matmovisit ID]),
            IF([InteractionsPerVisit] = 1, 1, 0)

BounceRate = 
    DIVIDE(
        [TotalBounces],

        0
    )

 

In summary:

  • InteractionsPerVisit calculates the total interactions per Matmovisit ID.
  • BounceFlag flags a visit as a bounce if interactions equal 1.
  • TotalBounces calculates the total bounces across all visits.
  • BounceRate divides total bounces by the total number of visits to get the bounce rate.

This should give you a similar outcome to your Tableau formula.

 

Best regards,

Thanks you so much for this. Your DAX functions are calculating the data precisely.
