Hello everyone!
I have a small problem and I cannot get it done... I'm thinking that I might need to use a RELATED or
LOOKUPVALUE but I cannot get it done.
In brief I have the following tables
Table A - Potential Clients
LeadID | Lead Days | Level | Activate |
64639 | 80 | Low | TRUE |
64771 | 60 | Medim | FALSE |
64777 | 30 | High | TRUE |
Table B - Notes on Clients
Note ID | LeadID | Creation Date | Subject |
175880 | 64639 | 11/12/2020 | lvm |
176154 | 64639 | 14/12/2020 | 2nd call |
177521 | 64639 | 04/01/2021 | First Contact |
177684 | 64639 | 06/01/2021 | Onboarded |
179445 | 64639 | 22/01/2021 | Call- LVM |
177993 | 64771 | 08/01/2021 | lvm |
178444 | 64771 | 14/01/2021 | Discovery |
179146 | 64771 | 20/01/2021 | Attended OB |
180543 | 64771 | 01/02/2021 | lvm |
178842 | 64777 | 19/01/2021 | Missed appt. email sent to reschedule |
The relation is one (table A) to many (tableB)
Now I need preferably a calculated column in Table A, lets call it a "phase" , which will be doing something the following logic
1. If TableA(Activate)=False -> ok this part is easy:p
AND in TableB(Comments) does NOT equal "Discovery" -> this is what I'm not sure how to do. i.e. check only matching leadID's if there is not a comment called "Discovery"
Then = "Not Ready"
ELSE
2. If TableA(Activate)=False
AND in TableB(Comments) = "Discovery" for same leadID's
Then = "New"
ELSE
3. If TableA(Level)=medium or high
AND in TableB(Comments) is NOT "Discovery" or "Onboarded"
Then = "Jump"
There are various other statements to get my full list, but those are my main issues... how to check all comments in TABLE B before assessing what "phase" they are?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@aabi , Check a new column example
Switch ( True() ,
TableA[Activate] = true() && countx(Filter(relatedtable(TableB), TableB[Comment]<> "Discovery"),TableB[LeadID]) +0 >0 , "Not Ready",
TableA[Activate] = false() && countx(Filter(relatedtable(TableB), TableB[Comment]= "Discovery"),TableB[LeadID]) +0 >0 , "New",
TableA[Level] in {"medium","high"} && countx(Filter(relatedtable(TableB), not(TableB[Comment] in {"Discovery" , "Onboarded"})),TableB[LeadID]) +0 >0 , "New",
)

Hi @amitchandak
Thank you! I really appreciate this!
This is a really smart/interesting way of Power BI/DAX usage!
I have also updated it accordingly to add some more rules and it seems to do what I need!
