How can I multiply Measure per Column?
Hi everyone,
I'm building a report table similar to example
I need a new measure
new measure = Measure*Column.
Could you help me please?
thank you
Hi Silver75,
The formula is ok but the grand total it's wrongBased on my experience, using SUMX function could make it work. The formula below is for your reference. :smileyhappy:
New measure = SUMX ( 'TableNameOfProductDim', [Measure] * SUM ( [Column] ) )
Note: replace 'TableNameOfProductDim' with the real table name of your Product Dim table which contains a column of individual value of ID PRODUCT.

Is your "Measure" in your example a column or a Measure? If you need an actual measure, you will need to use an aggregation function like MAX, MIN or SUM like:
MyMeasure = SUM([Measure])*SUM([Column])
Otherwise, if Measure is an actual measure, then you shouldn't need the SUM for [Measure].
HI Greg_Deckler
thank you for your solution. Measure is an actual measure. The formula is ok but the grand total it's wrong
Yeah, that is not uncommon with measures. You generally have to do an IF with a HASONEFILTER or something along those lines to get the grand total to calculate correctly. Essentially, you can think of a measure in a grand total as your measure calculating in the context of ALL.
