Hello,
I need to have measure that will display dynamic values according to specific rows.
I have created similar logic in custom data column using Earlier function. But while creaitng same code in Measure. I get error messages
""
Here [AnaHesap] is the Row Colunm, when the row is about the data tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[Ana Hesap]="TOPLAM %" then
the data clolum in row tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[Ana Hesap]="NET" is used
This custom data colum generate usage with EARLIER is not supported I think.
Column=
if (
tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[Ana Hesap]="TOPLAM %",
SUMX(FILTER('tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma', tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[Ana Hesap]="TOPLAM NET"
&& tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[SUBEADI]=EARLIER(tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[SUBEADI])
), 'tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma'[DÖNEM MİKTARI] )
,tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[DÖNEM MİKTARI])
the aim is to calculate the Percentage value using the data in seperate two rows and display this percentage value in "Data %" column
OranHesapKolon = if (tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[Ana Hesap]="TOPLAM %",
SUMX(FILTER('tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma', tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[Ana Hesap]="TOPLAM NET" && tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[SUBEADI]=EARLIER(tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[SUBEADI]) && tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[BUTCE_AY]=EARLIER(tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[BUTCE_AY])) , 'tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma'[DÖNEM MİKTARI]
) / SUMX(FILTER('tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma', tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[Ana Hesap]="TOPLAM GELİR" && tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[SUBEADI]=EARLIER(tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[SUBEADI]) && tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[BUTCE_AY]=EARLIER(tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[BUTCE_AY])) , 'tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma'[DÖNEM MİKTARI]
) *100 ,tbl_FinansButceKarsilastirma[DÖNEM MİKTARI])
Simply, is there any suggestion how can I use EARLIER funciton while creating new measure , it works fine creating column but, in measure I could not have any way ..
A simple demo to show how apply EARLIER in a measure.
RunningTotal Measure = CALCULATE( SUM( Table1[amount] ), FILTER( ALL(Table1) , SUMX( FILTER( Table1, EARLIER( Table1[date] ) <= Table1[date] ), Table1[amount] ) ) )
Due to low definition of the snapshots in your original post, I can't get what is the error message. If possible, upload your pbix with sample data, it can help to make your question more clear.
The sample code provided works as advertised and was exactly what I needed, but I hate to use something I don't understand and this is in that category.
My understanding of the FILTER function is that the second parameter must be a Boolean expression. When I look at the top level FILTER function in the sample code, it uses SUMX as it's filtering expression, which I think would evaluate to a numerical result rather than a Boolean one. What am I missing?
I have looked at lot of other FILTER examples and I have yet to find something else like this. Can you shed some light on how and why this works?
