How to use Filter selection as a VAR in DAX

Hello,

I need to create a table that in the first row count the amount of “Id” for any condition (Open or Close) from month 1 until the selected month in the filter for each zone.

In the second row, I need to show the same number calculated in the top row but multiply by the select month number and divided by 12

In the third row, I need to count the amount of “Id” but only the ones that are “Open” from month 1 until the selected month in the filter for each zone.

For example if you choose month 4 in the filter, you should get the following table

 

South

North

Total

Number of events

3

6

9

Percentage at this month

1

2

3

Number of open events

2

2

4


Were the 1, 2 and 3 in the second row comes from this formula, for the first column is 3*4(select month)/12 and for the second column is 6*4(select month)/12

thanks

One little question, what would have change in this measure 

Number of Open Events = CALCULATE( [Number of Events]; Table1[condition] = "Open" )

if in the condition column instead of  having 2 possible states ("Open" and "Close") you would have 4 possible states ("Open", "Close", "In Maintenance" and “ReOpen” ) and you want to display all the ones that are "Open" and "In Maintenance".

Thanks!

 

Amazing, thanks!
