Hi all,
I have following issue where I hope to find help here.
I want to create a measure which has the values of a column which is filtered by a contains function.
To be precise. I have endless financial transactions on numerous subaccounts. Now i want to filter for the main account number which all these suaccounts contain. But I am failing and failing.
So is there a way to do that without editing my data model?
Thanks in advance
BR,
Paul
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous Try this
Calculate(Sum(table[Column]),filter(table,left(table[Account number],8)="60200000"))
There is also one function stringCOntains. You can try out that also.
Thanks & regards,
