Hey All,
This is my data model:
Each client is related to 1 city, but each city can be related to more than 1 region.
I am trying to create a visual to count the # of clients per region. Ya, it will create duplicates and paralel clients that exist in more than 1 region at the same time. And a slicer on the region.
How can I achieve this? I am not sure and would love some advise and directions.
Here is another graphical explanation of my data model.
Edit:
When trying to "LOOKUPVALUE" the region according to the city, I am getting an error
A table of multiple values was supplied where a single value was expected.
Which makes sense with this situation.
I have the city in the client table, but the region is mapped in other table(s).
Thanks
A
Hi @Anonymous ,
If it is convenient, could you show your sample data in text-tabular format in addition to (or instead of) screen captures. That allows people trying to help to readily copy the data and run a quick test, plus it increases the likelihood of your question being answered. Just use 'Copy table' in Power BI and paste it here. Or, ideally, share the pbix (beware of confidential data).
Best Regards,
Cherry
Hey,
Here is a sample of my Region-City table
So,
The city named 'Ako' is mapped to 4 different regions (BEG,EUR,HEA,JAN).
The city named 'Alb' is mapped to 3 different regions (HEA,JAN,WOL).
The city named 'Bom' is mapped to 5 different regions (EUR,HEA,JAN,KIA,SHO).
Region City Short
| Beg | Ako |
| Eur | Ako |
| Hea | Ako |
| Jan | Ako |
| Hea | Alb |
| Jan | Alb |
| Wol | Alb |
| Eur | Bom |
| Hea | Bom |
| Jan | Bom |
| Kia | Bom |
| Sho | Bom |
Here is a sample of my clients table
10 clients are mapped to 'Alb' and 0 to 'Ako' and 5 to 'Bom'
| 9446 | Alb |
| 2534 | Alb |
| 5144 | Alb |
| 6031 | Alb |
| 477 | Alb |
| 476 | Alb |
| 478 | Alb |
| 791 | Alb |
| 792 | Alb |
| 1466 | Alb |
| 94 | Bom |
| 149 | Bom |
| 223 | Bom |
| 604 | Bom |
| 742 | Bom |
| 990 | Other |
The expeced results are
Region - Count(# of Clients)
Beg- 0
Eur - 5 (0+5)
Hea - 15 = (0+5+10)
Jan - 15 = (0+5+10)
Kia - 5
Sho - 5
Cheers!
