Help on Formula

Hello, 

 

I am using this below formula but it is showing error. 

Scorecard 2 = CALCULATE([Scorecard],IF(NOT('Sheet1'[Capability & offer] = BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Overall Performance] = BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Delivering with integrity] = BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Communicating effectively] = BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Demonstrating right behaviours] = BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Knowing expectations] = BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Health, safety & wellbeing] =BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Resolving issues] =BLANK())))))))),0))
 
scorecard = 
(AVERAGE(Sheet1[Capability & offer])+AVERAGE(Sheet1[Communicating effectively])+AVERAGE(Sheet1[Delivering with integrity])+AVERAGE(Sheet1[Demonstrating right behaviours])+AVERAGE(Sheet1[Health, safety & wellbeing])+AVERAGE(Sheet1[Knowing expectations])+AVERAGE(Sheet1[Overall Performance]))/7
 

So basically the problem I am facing is - I have 7 columns from which I am calculating scorecard ( adding the average of those columns and then divide by 7). I get the desired result. But there are some discrepancy in my data , like all the 7 columns does not contain a value for example 3 out of 7 columns may have a value and other 4 may not by this by average result comes out to be wrong. 

 

If I can write a formula, if any column is blank do not calculate the scorecard value row. I see data yearly so we have to write measure for it, making a new column will not work.

 

Please let me know to tackle this problem. 

 

thanks in advance

    Hi Anonymous ，

     

    Would you please try to use the following measure:

     

     

    Scorecard 2 =
VAR A =
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( 'Sheet1'[Capability & offer] ),
        FILTER ( 'Sheet1', NOT ( ISBLANK ( 'Sheet1'[Capability & offer] ) ) )
    )
VAR B =
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( 'Sheet1'[Overall Performance] ),
        FILTER ( 'Sheet1', NOT ( ISBLANK ( 'Sheet1'[Overall Performance] ) ) )
    )
VAR C =
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( 'Sheet1'[Delivering with integrity] ),
        FILTER ( 'Sheet1', NOT ( ISBLANK ( 'Sheet1'[Delivering with integrity] ) ) )
    )
VAR D =
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( 'Sheet1'[Communicating effectively] ),
        FILTER ( 'Sheet1', NOT ( ISBLANK ( 'Sheet1'[Communicating effectively] ) ) )
    )
VAR E =
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( 'Sheet1'[Demonstrating right behaviours] ),
        FILTER (
            'Sheet1',
            NOT ( ISBLANK ( 'Sheet1'[Demonstrating right behaviours] ) )
        )
    )
VAR F =
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( 'Sheet1'[Knowing expectations] ),
        FILTER ( 'Sheet1', NOT ( ISBLANK ( 'Sheet1'[Knowing expectations] ) ) )
    )
VAR G =
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( 'Sheet1'[Health, safety & wellbeing] ),
        FILTER ( 'Sheet1', NOT ( ISBLANK ( 'Sheet1'[Health, safety & wellbeing] ) ) )
    )
RETURN
     ( A + B + C + D + E + F + G ) / 7

    Hi,

    Observing your formula, it looks like your data needs restructuring.  Share your source dataset, explain the business context and show the expected result.

    Anonymous What is your error? Can you post sample data? Use daxformatter.com. You need to use a FILTER clause and not IF, FILTER(NOT(ISBLANK([capability & offer])) && NOT(ISBLANK(...

     

    Scorecard 2 =
CALCULATE (
    [Scorecard],
    IF (
        NOT (
            'Sheet1'[Capability & offer] = BLANK ()
                && NOT (
                    Sheet1[Overall Performance] = BLANK ()
                        && NOT (
                            Sheet1[Delivering with integrity] = BLANK ()
                                && NOT (
                                    Sheet1[Communicating effectively] = BLANK ()
                                        && NOT (
                                            Sheet1[Demonstrating right behaviours] = BLANK ()
                                                && NOT (
                                                    Sheet1[Knowing expectations] = BLANK ()
                                                        && NOT (
                                                            Sheet1[Health, safety & wellbeing] = BLANK ()
                                                                && NOT ( Sheet1[Resolving issues] = BLANK () )
                                                        )
                                                )
                                        )
                                )
                        )
                )
        ),
        0
    )
)





scorecard =
(
    AVERAGE ( Sheet1[Capability & offer] )
        + AVERAGE ( Sheet1[Communicating effectively] )
        + AVERAGE ( Sheet1[Delivering with integrity] )
        + AVERAGE ( Sheet1[Demonstrating right behaviours] )
        + AVERAGE ( Sheet1[Health, safety & wellbeing] )
        + AVERAGE ( Sheet1[Knowing expectations] )
        + AVERAGE ( Sheet1[Overall Performance] )
) / 7

      Hello 

      Thanks for your solution but it is not working.

      its is giving this error - The expression contains multiple columns, but only a single column can be used in a True/False expression that is used as a table filter expression.

    Anonymous , I think with blank you have use == or isblank([column])

     

    CALCULATE([Scorecard],IF(NOT('Sheet1'[Capability & offer] == BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Overall Performance] == BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Delivering with integrity] == BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Communicating effectively] == BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Demonstrating right behaviours] == BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Knowing expectations] == BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Health, safety & wellbeing] ==BLANK() && NOT(Sheet1[Resolving issues] ==BLANK())))))))),0))

      amitchandak  this is error I am getting after your formula.

      The expression contains multiple columns, but only a single column can be used in a True/False expression that is used as a table filter expression.

    Are you totally sure you should be adding averages? (Off the top of my head...)

    as Ashish_Mathur  states, it looks like you need to think about data structure in your model.

    please provide a sample dataset or PBIX file to help us help you
