Hierarchy in Table.

Hello @all,

 

Entity Table:

Role Name Status Segment
Associate Manager Imtiyaz Live_In Admin Institutional
Director Ryan Live/In Dissolution Institutional
Associate Manager Bhisham Live/In Dissolution Institutional
Director Ryan Live_In Admin Private
Associate Manager Bhisham  Live/In Dissolution Private
Director Ryan Live_In Admin Institutional
Associate Manager Girish Live_In Admin Institutional
Director Ryan Live/In Dissolution Institutional
Associate Manager Imtiyaz Live/In Dissolution Corporate

 

I have a data set that is similar to the above table.

I have to find the Count number of rows with the status "Live/In Dissolution".

This should be shown for the Different Segments

But the issue is that there is a hierarchy in the data i.e, "Associate Manager" comes under "Director".  So the Count of "Associate Manager" should also be added to the count of "Director".

I am trying to show this with the help of Matrix, but the "Director" in this case "Ryan" is not showing the added values.

 

This Is the Measure I am using to Count Rows:

CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS('Entity Table'),
    FILTER('Entity Table','Entity Table'[Status]="Live/In Dissolution")
)

 

 

Please help resolve this issue.

Thank you.

    Hi, MintuBaruah 

    in order to work with Hierarchy in DAX you need to utilize PATH function

    and in order utilize PATH function your data table must assign EMP# and the Manager No# like following

     

     

    | Role              | Name    | Status              | Segment       | Emp# | Manager |
|-------------------|---------|---------------------|---------------|------|---------|
| Associate Manager | Imtiyaz | Live_In Admin       | Institutional | 4    | 1       |
| Director          | Ryan    | Live/In Dissolution | Institutional | 1    |         |
| Associate Manager | Bhisham | Live/In Dissolution | Institutional | 2    | 1       |
| Director          | Ryan    | Live_In Admin       | Private       | 1    |         |
| Associate Manager | Bhisham | Live/In Dissolution | Private       | 2    | 1       |
| Director          | Ryan    | Live_In Admin       | Institutional | 1    |         |
| Associate Manager | Girish  | Live_In Admin       | Institutional | 3    | 1       |
| Director          | Ryan    | Live/In Dissolution | Institutional | 1    |         |
| Associate Manager | Imtiyaz | Live/In Dissolution | Corporate     | 4    | 1       |

     

     

    Once you have that, create one calculated column as following

     

    _path = PATH('Entity Table'[Emp#],'Entity Table'[Manager])

     

     

     

    Count = 
CALCULATE (
    COUNTROWS ( 'Entity Table' ),
    FILTER ( 'Entity Table', 'Entity Table'[Status] = "Live/In Dissolution" )
)

Count2 = 
CALCULATE (
    COUNTROWS ( 'Entity Table' ),
    FILTER (
        'Entity Table',
        'Entity Table'[Status] = "Live/In Dissolution"
            && 'Entity Table'[Role] <> "Director"
    )
)

_finalCount = 
VAR _0 =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Entity Table'[_path] ),
        FILTER ( VALUES ( 'Entity Table'[Role] ), 'Entity Table'[Role] = "Director" )
    )
VAR _1 =
    CALCULATE (
        [Count],
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Entity Table', 'Entity Table'[Segment] ),
            PATHCONTAINS ( 'Entity Table'[_path], _0 )
        )
    )
RETURN
    _1 + [Count2]

      Hi smpa01 

       

      Thank you for the reply. 

      This solution is working but there is one problem I have to show this in a Matrix visualization and the Grand total is showing the wrong values (Please refer to Screenshot 1).

       

      Screenshot 1:

       

       

       

       

       

       

      Is there any solution to this issue as there is no option to disable this?
