How to do custom rounding in DAX?
- 3 years ago
Anonymous I have modified things to be more in line with your data and requirements. See if this works. Updated PBIX is attached below signature.
Measure 2 = VAR __Cat2 = MAX('Table'[Category2]) VAR __Table = GENERATE( SUMMARIZE( FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'), [Category2] = __Cat2), 'Table'[Category1],'Table'[Category2],"Value",MAX([Percentage])), VAR __Value = [Value] VAR __RD = ROUNDDOWN(__Value,0) VAR __Decimal = __Value - __RD RETURN ROW( "RD", __RD, "Decimal", __Decimal ) ) VAR __MaxDecimal = MAXX(__Table,[Decimal]) VAR __MaxCategory = MAXX(FILTER(__Table, [Decimal] = __MaxDecimal),[Category1]) VAR __2ndMaxDecimal = MAXX(FILTER(__Table, [Category1] <> __MaxCategory), [Decimal]) VAR __2ndMaxCategory = MAXX(FILTER(__Table, [Category1] <> __MaxCategory && [Decimal] = __2ndMaxDecimal),[Category1]) VAR __Category = MAX('Table'[Category1]) VAR __Result = IF( __Category = __MaxCategory || __Category = __2ndMaxCategory, ROUNDUP(MAX([Percentage]),0), ROUNDDOWN(MAX([Percentage]),0) ) RETURN __Result //CONCATENATEX(__Table, [Category1]&":"&[Category2]&":"&[Value]&":"&[RD]&":"&[Decimal],UNICHAR(10)&UNICHAR(13)) - 3 years ago
Anonymous Easy fix for that, see below and attached PBIX.
Measure 2 = VAR __Cat2 = MAX('Table'[Category2]) VAR __Table = GENERATE( SUMMARIZE( FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'), [Category2] = __Cat2), 'Table'[Category1],'Table'[Category2],"Value",MAX([Percentage])), VAR __Value = [Value] VAR __RD = ROUNDDOWN(__Value,0) VAR __Decimal = __Value - __RD RETURN ROW( "RD", __RD, "Decimal", __Decimal ) ) VAR __MaxDecimal = MAXX(__Table,[Decimal]) VAR __MaxCategory = MAXX(FILTER(__Table, [Decimal] = __MaxDecimal),[Category1]) VAR __2ndMaxDecimal = MAXX(FILTER(__Table, [Category1] <> __MaxCategory), [Decimal]) VAR __2ndMaxCategory = MAXX(FILTER(__Table, [Category1] <> __MaxCategory && [Decimal] = __2ndMaxDecimal),[Category1]) VAR __Category = MAX('Table'[Category1]) VAR __SumDown = SUMX(__Table, [RD]) VAR __Result = SWITCH(__SumDown, 99, IF( __Category = __MaxCategory, ROUNDUP(MAX([Percentage]),0), ROUNDDOWN(MAX([Percentage]),0) ), 98, IF( __Category = __MaxCategory || __Category = __2ndMaxCategory, ROUNDUP(MAX([Percentage]),0), ROUNDDOWN(MAX([Percentage]),0) ) ) RETURN __Result //CONCATENATEX(__Table, [Category1]&":"&[Category2]&":"&[Value]&":"&[RD]&":"&[Decimal],UNICHAR(10)&UNICHAR(13)) - Anonymous3 years ago
Great, that worked! Thanks so much, very much appreciated 🙂
And I added an alternative for SWITCH in case nothing needs to be rounded (in the unlikely case all are numbers with 0 decimals)
bolfri thanks for your suggestions, but I would like to avoid adding extra columns, because this will increase the model size and impact performance dramatically (the fact table has more than a million rows). In addition, the requirement is that the remaining percent points have to be added to the values with the largest decimal, in descending order (see my explanation above)...
You you want to change the value? If the Category 2 and 3 have same value, why do you want to give them differete percentage impact? 😄 You can do it in one step or by a measure. It was just an example of the results. If you can accept that (eg. this round up solution), I can give you Power Query M steps to change it in the source.

bolfriyour comment makes sense, but unfortunately I am not allowed to deviate from the requirements re. the distribution of the percent points. I am definitely curious to see what a Power Query M step for this would look like 🙂

Solution Sage
I can prepare Power Query M for rounddown or roundup solution, but without this additional req to split this % value between Category 2 or 3. Sorry. 🙂
