Need help on dealing with category hierarchy count

Hello, 

 

Let's say I have a data structure like this

 

Level 1        Level 2          Status

A                    A1              Approved

A                   A2                 Approved

A                 A3                  Approved

B                    B1             Review

B                     B2              Approved

B                   B3                Review

C                  C1                Approved

C                 C2                Approved

C                C3                       Approved

 

Only when all items in level 2 are approved, level 1 items are approved. So how do I write a measure to count how many level 1 items are approved? 

Thanks for the help in advance!

    Hey glycine76 ,

     

    this measure:

    Measure = 
COUNTX(
    VALUES( 'Status'[Lvl1] )
    , var noOfRowsLvl2 = 
        COUNTROWS(
            CALCULATETABLE(
                VALUES( 'Status'[Lvl2] )
                , ALL( 'Status'[Lvl2] )
                , ALL( 'Status'[Status] )
            )
        )
    var noOfRowsApproved = 
        COUNTROWS(
                CALCULATETABLE(
                    FILTER( 
                        'Status'
                        , 'Status'[Status] = "Approved"
                    )
                    , ALL( 'Status'[Lvl2] )
                    , ALL( 'Status'[Status] )
                )
            )
    return
    IF( noOfRowsLvl2 = noOfRowsApproved , 1 , BLANK() )
)

    Allows creating this table visual:

    Please be aware that I enabled the option "Show items with no data" on the column Lvl1, this option does not affect the measure, but it helps to understand my sample data, and why Lvl1 = B is not considered "complete".

    Hopefully, this provides what you are looking for.

     

    Regards,

    Tom

    Use the table tool when you are providing simple sample data otherwise it will eat up time from people trying to help:

    Hi glycine76 ,

     

    If you are using matrix, please try:

    Measure =
IF (
    ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Level 2] ),
    MAX ( 'Table'[Status] ),
    IF (
        COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( 'Table', [Status] = "Approved" ) )
            = COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ),
        "Approved",
        "Review"
    )
)

    Final output:
