LookupValue as a Calculated Measure

Hi all, 

 

I created calculated column where I wrote the following formula. I use the Lookup Value function with Indexes there. this formula works well, but I want to ask if you could write me how to write the same formula but for "Calculated Measures" ? Thank you

Weighted ABS Error Statistical Lag 1 last 3M = ('LAG 1 Sales History'[ABS Error Statistical Lag 1]*0.6 + (LOOKUPVALUE(

'LAG 1 Sales History'[ABS Error Statistical Lag 1],

'LAG 1 Sales History'[Index],

'LAG 1 Sales History'[Index] - 1))

*0.25 + (LOOKUPVALUE(

'LAG 1 Sales History'[ABS Error Statistical Lag 1],

'LAG 1 Sales History'[Index],

'LAG 1 Sales History'[Index] - 2))

*0.15)/1

Hi @Anonymous ,

Please refer to my pbix file to see if it helps you.

Create a measure.

Measure =
VAR _3 =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[ABS Error] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Table' ),
            'Table'[DFU] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[DFU] )
                && 'Table'[index]
                    = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[index] ) - 2
        )
    )
VAR _2 =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[ABS Error] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Table' ),
            'Table'[DFU] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[DFU] )
                && 'Table'[index]
                    = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[index] ) - 1
        )
    )
VAR _1 =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[ABS Error] ),
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Table' ),
            'Table'[DFU] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[DFU] )
                && 'Table'[index] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[index] )
        )
    )
VAR _1RE = ( ( _3 * 0.6 ) + ( _2 * 0.25 ) + ( _1 * 0.15 ) ) / 1
RETURN
    IF ( MAX ( 'Table'[index] ) <= 1, BLANK (), _1RE )

Hi @Anonymous ,

Please have a try.

Create a measure.

Weighted ABS Error Statistical Lag 1 last 3M =
MAX ( 'LAG 1 Sales History'[ABS Error Statistical Lag 1] ) * 0.6
    + (
        LOOKUPVALUE (
            'LAG 1 Sales History'[ABS Error Statistical Lag 1],
            'LAG 1 Sales History'[Index], 'LAG 1 Sales History'[Index] - 1
        ) * 0.25
            + (
                LOOKUPVALUE (
                    'LAG 1 Sales History'[ABS Error Statistical Lag 1],
                    'LAG 1 Sales History'[Index], 'LAG 1 Sales History'[Index] - 2
                )
            ) * 0.15
    ) / 1

A small example in Excel of what we are trying to do in PBi with the help of indexes. 

Is there any other way to achieve this? But only Calculated Measure, because Calculated Column takes a lot of memory

Thanks
