Measure Incorrectly Passing Value to New Measure

Hi, I am having problems feeding the result of "Measure 1" below into "Measure 2". I do get the correct result of 8921 from "Measure 1", but "Measure 2" is not reading that number correctly. Notice in "Measure 3" I hardcode in the 8921 and I get the correct result, but when I reference the measure I get the incorrect result. I'm thinking it either has to do with my variable or the ALLSELECTED portion of "Measure 1". I am using a slicer to pick an "AssetName" then doing a sum of "Available MW". Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hi @austinb97,

 

Without your data structure, I can't determine the exact filtering conditions, but in any case, you have to make sure the filtering conditions for measure1 and measure2 are the same.

Try measure as:

MINX(
     FILTER(ALLEXCEPT(MERITORDER,MERITORDER[DATE]),MERITORDER[CUMULATIVE AVAILABLE MW]>=[MEASURE1]),
     MERITORDER[PRICE]
)

If you still have some question, please provide the pbix file after removing sensitive information.

@austinb97 , You are trying to use measure in a filter then you have to force a context using summarize or values

 

 

example

sumx(filter(values(Table[ID]), [Measure] > max(Table1[Col1])),[Measure])

Thanks, however I'm not sure how to apply that to my measure, any suggestions on how to rewrite it?
