Hi everyone,
I'm new with this account because I work at a different company now. I have some experience with Power BI.
I made a card with filters which gives me an outcome. I want to calculate with that outcome so I can calculate some percentages. Now I was thinking of making a measure with a sum and a filter. But it isn't working. So I'm doing something wrong. I think it's because of the amount of filters. Also I get the message that I'm not allowed to compare true/false with text.
Anybody has an idea how I can go through with this?
@Anonymous , I doubt the calculation, Correct the syntax at few places. Try
afname aantal =
CALCULATE(
SUM('table'[amount]),
FILTER('table','table'[CallType]="AFNAME" && 'table'[Productcheck]="1" && 'table'[UnitCheck]="1"
&& 'table'[status_contreader] in {"Actief" ,"Leegstand"} && not('table'[STATUS] in {"Geannulr" ,"Gennul"}) && 'table'[status_line] in {"Actief" ,"Leegstand" }))
@amitchandak sorry for the late reply, I have a seperate 365 account on which I don't receive email, only for power BI, so I didnt see your response. Unfortunately it didnt work, I get the same error. I'm going to look into it some more myself. Maybe I can do it some other way.
