Hi Brynieboy
Due to I donāt know your data, I make a sample in excel just like yours.
I tried your dax in Excel and get the result as below:
I import the excel into the desktop and use calculated column.
Commission2 = VAR _NewSold = SUM(Sheet1[New Sold]) VAR _UsedSold = SUM(Sheet1[Used Sold]) VAR _NewTarget= SUM(Sheet1[New Target]) VAR _UsedTarget = SUM(Sheet1[Used Target]) VAR _NewT80 = SUM(Sheet1[New 80%]) VAR _UsedT80 = SUM(Sheet1[Used 80%]) VAR _AllSold= SUM(Sheet1[New Sold])+SUM(Sheet1[Used Sold]) VAR _AllTarget= SUM(Sheet1[New Target])+SUM(Sheet1[Used Target]) return IF ( AND (_NewSold >= _NewTarget ,_UsedSold >= _UsedTarget), _AllSold*150-_AllTarget*50 , IF ( OR ( AND (_NewSold >=_NewTarget,_UsedSold >_UsedT80 ), AND (_NewSold >=_NewT80, _UsedSold>= _UsedTarget) ), _AllSold*100, _AllSold*25 ) )Result:
