Help with calculated column

Hi, I have this table, I want to grab the Monthly value of ID 1 :

 

 

 

And put it in a calculated column for every ID (taking into account the Month) like this:

 

 

How can I achieve this with DAX ?

 

Thanks

 

 

  • Hi Anonymous 

    what about this solution:

     

     

    X = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Month]),'Table'[ID] = 1))

     

    With kind regards from the town where the legend of the 'Pied Piper of Hamelin' is at home

  • Hi,

    This calculated column formula works

    =CALCULATE(SUM(Data[Value]),FILTER(Data,Data[ID]=1&&Data[Month]=EARLIER(Data[Month])))

    Hope this helps.

    I know there's a faster way to do this but I do not know how, but this is how I would approach your problem.

     

    1. Create a new column, ID_New = 1, this will make all rows 1
    2. Change ID_New and ID columns data type into text
    3. Create 2 more new columns, ID_New-Month and ID-Month, with the formula ID_New-Month = concatenate(ID_New,Month) and ID-Month = concatenate(ID,Month)
    4. Once you have that, do a lookupvalue column. X = lookupvalue('Table'[Value], 'Table'[ID-Month], 'Table'[ID_New-Month])

     

    As mentioned, there has to be a quicker way to do it, but this is how I would do it if I couldn't find the quick way.
