How can I get a summary results based on the mesures

Hi,

I am struggling with the summary results and would like to get some assistance. Thank you in advance for the supports!

 

I have a table like the 1st screen shot and would like to get a summary like the 2nd screen shot in orange.

By the way, HIGHEST EDU is a measure that I created in order to find the highest eduction of each employee.

HIGHEST EDU = CALCULATE(MAX(table[Education Rank]), ALLEXCEPT(table, table[ID]))

Hi Lionel,

 

Thank you for your assistance and I was able to repliate what you had done.

I am wondering if there is another way not to use allexcept function?  Since I have slicers on columns besides department?

Hi  @Anonymous  ,

According to this result:

v-yangliu-msft_0-1609139973903.png

You can create measure:

HASONEVALUE =
var _new=SUMMARIZE('Table','Table'[DEPT],"_value",[Sum])
return IF(HASONEVALUE('Table'[DEPT]),[Sum],SUMX(_new,[_value]))

 

Best Regards,

Liu Yang

Hi @parry2k ,

 

Thanks for sharing the 2 measures and they worked fine w/ the sample data (the 2nd table in the bottom).

 

As applying to the actual data sets, the sum results do not work (the 1st table on the top). I don't know if this is because I have a filter to the department. Do you have any idea?  I really appreciate your assistance, you and @PhilipTreacy had taught me a lot.  Really appreciate!!!!!

Hi parry2k,

 

Thanks for the reminding. I will do it next time.

It seems like the sum values do not look correct. The sum for DEPT AG should be 7?

Thanks!

@Anonymous you should add this as a separate question so that not to bundle everything in one place.

 

Here are the measures

Sum = SUMX ( ALLEXCEPT ( Edu, Edu[Dept] ), [C] ) * DIVIDE ( [C], [C] )

% = DIVIDE ( [C], [Sum] )

Here are the measures though:

@PhilipTreacy you don't need to use Highest Edu in your visual, use Edu column

@PhilipTreacy try this measure

 

C =

    SUMMARIZE ( 
        Edu, 
        Edu[Dept], 
        Edu[EDU],

Let me repost my input and results.

 

My input source is like the table in blue (called table)  and it records everyone's education level.  --> e.g. ID = 1, she has entered  4 eduction records: null, 01, 03 & 04 and her highest education level is 04.   I would like to get a result like the table in orange.

 

By the way, HIGHEST EDU is a measure that I created in order to find the highest eduction of each employee.

HIGHEST EDU = CALCULATE(MAX(table[Education Rank]), ALLEXCEPT(table, table[ID]))

Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous 

I'm not following the logic that produces your summary table.  Why include highest Edu 03 and 04 but not 01?   Are you looking for a count of the number of people with each level of education, in each dept?  If so, why is the count for AP,03 blank?

regards

Phil
