Hierarchy help

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Im just wondering if there's possibly a function that would help total up however many lower levels there is in a hierarchy e.g. Building name below and display the total (400).

The reason I ask is because the first measure ( Total Bookable Hours) for the 200 below comes from an unrelated date table so it doesn't naturally sum upwards. I almost need the Total bookable hours to display for how ever many occurences of a room there is and display total for the building.

The measure reads 

Total Bookable Hours =

CALCULATE(

COUNT(vwDimDate[Date]),

FILTER(vwDimDate, vwDimDate[WorkingDayFlag] = 1)) * 10

Ive looked into isinscope but the second part for the building I cant seem to work, and the measure totals dont seem to help.

Hope that makes sense

Thanks

Liam

Hi , @Anonymous 

It looks like the same thread there.

So I directly tested the pbix  you  provide there.

It is unreasonable to establish relationship between tables through the field "Date" and  "Start date"

Through your original formula, I guess  you may just want to get the result of   [count of  all working days in the date] * 10.

If it is ,  try  this measure as below:

Measure = 
SUMX(GROUPBY('Bookings','Bookings'[Building Name],'Bookings'[Room]),COUNTROWS(FILTER(DISTINCT('Bookings'[Start Date]),WEEKDAY([Start Date],2) IN {1,2,3,4,5})) *10 )

pbix attached

Hi @amitchandak ,

Thanks for your reply. This article relies on the measure summing upwards naturally which unfortunately my measure doesnt do.

Thanks

Hi @amitchandak ,

Thanks again for replying. They are all using the SUM function from the same table which I'm unfortunately not.

I'm not sure whether its possible, as if I use the isfiltered or isinscope it will always equal the same total as the lower level. I was hoping of an alternative approach where it could total the lower level on the fly

I tried like this

When Filtered = if( ISINSCOPE('Item'[Category]),SUM(Sales[Net Sales]),MIN(Sales[Net Sales]))
