How to calculate this measure

[Anonymous]

I have a base table 'Orders' with a column OrderNo, this column is being used in a visual.

I have another table 'Operations' with columns: OrderNo, OperationNo, TimeTaken (this is just a numeric column). This table is related to base table with OrderNo. Please note that one OrderNo can have multiple OperationNo.

I want to add a column to my visual 'TimeRemaining', which takes all OperationNo (from Operations table) for an OrderNo and sums the TimeTaken column.

How can I achieve this?

Hi @Anonymous ,

I made a sample data as follows.

Try this measure

SUM BY OrderNo =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( Operations[TimeTaken ] ),
    FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( Operations ), [OrderNo] = MAX ( 'Operations'[OrderNo] ) )
)

Please check my attachment.

Hello, I have created a new question for the issue.

Thank you

Thank you for the reply.

I see that this formula and using a SUM(TimeTaken) yields the same result.

I will open a new question for this one, as the problem seems to be elsewhere.

@Anonymous , hope these tables are joined on the order number.

If you are using the duration/time type column, you need to do little bit of work to add that

refer if these can help in that

The TimeTaken column can just be treated as numeric column. Yes, the tables are joined on OrderNo. I have updated the question

@Anonymous , if you need a new column  in Table1

sumx(relatedtable(Table2), Table2[Time taken])

in case of measure

sum( Table2[Time taken]) 

should do
