Is there a way to get the value of On Hand to be 32 using a calculated field?? My goal is to get the correct value which is 32 without using Average for the component 12P9813X032. But the value is s...
Hey Anonymous ,
I think I found the reason. You added the formula as calculated column, but you have to add it as measure:
Then the result is correct:
To understand the difference, a calculated column is just a new column in the table. In your case you added a new column that returned for every row the average of
tableforqty[ONHAND_QTY] what is for each row the same value as the column tableforqty[ONHAND_QTY]. When you put that calculated column in the matrix the visual was summing up the averages, what was equal to the total.If you use a measure it will always be calculated on the fly and in the context that you are using it. So if you put the measure in the matrix, it will calculate the average for each Component_Code and also for the total.You can see the difference also by the logo. The calculated column [On Hand Average] has the icon of a table, the measure [On Hand Average as Measure] has the icon of a measure.If you need any help please let me know.If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍Best regardsDenisBlog: WhatTheFact.biFollow me: twitter.com/DenSelimovic
Hey Anonymous ,
yes, you can exclude that item from the calculation.
Try the following approach:
Average without 12P9813X032 =
CALCULATE(
AVERAGE( myTable[ValueColumn] ),
myTable[COMPONENT_CODE] <> '12P9813X032'
)
If you need any help please let me know.
