I have three columns in a table and we are using parameters to select the required column to the table.
Based on the selected column, I need to summarize and do some calculation.
I am stuck and unable to find how to make “VAR SUMMERISE” to work, this variable should summerize the selected columns only. I am using this to find the denominator.
It works fine when all three columns are selected, but I need to summerize based on the selected column
Parameter are [column names]: We have a slicer on the page
🔲Partnername
☑️partnerTYPE
☑️partnercountry
I need a syntax to summarize just the selected columns
Uniques = VAR sumfc = SUM(salary) VAR SUMMARISE = SUMMARIZE(Partnername, Partnercountry, partnerTYPE, "Average", sumfc) RETURN IF( OR( ISINSCOPE('Partnername'), OR(ISINSCOPE('Partnercountry'), ISINSCOPE(partnerTYPE)) ), SUM(salary), DIVIDE(sumfc, COUNTROWS(SUMMARISE)) )
@Sahir_Maharaj Thanks for replying, but I am trying both the solution and still getting this error
"The expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value."
Hello @SwathiGanesh,
You can use the SWITCH function to check which column is selected.
Uniques =
VAR SelectedColumn = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Parameter])
VAR sumfc = SUM('Table'[Salary])
VAR SUMMARISE =
SWITCH(
SelectedColumn,
"Partnername", SUMMARIZE('Table', 'Table'[Partnername], "Average", sumfc),
"partnerTYPE", SUMMARIZE('Table', 'Table'[partnerTYPE], "Average", sumfc),
"partnercountry", SUMMARIZE('Table', 'Table'[partnercountry], "Average", sumfc)
)
RETURN
IF(
OR(
ISINSCOPE('Table'[Partnername]),
OR(ISINSCOPE('Table'[partnerTYPE]), ISINSCOPE('Table'[partnercountry]))
),
SUM('Table'[Salary]),
DIVIDE(sumfc, COUNTROWS(SUMMARISE))
)
Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out.
How to switch when two columns are selected and I need to summarize into one table
@SwathiGanesh, you can use the UNION function to combine the data from both columns into a single table.
UnionTable =
UNION(
SELECTCOLUMNS(Table1, "Column1", [Column1], "Column2", BLANK()),
SELECTCOLUMNS(Table2, "Column1", BLANK(), "Column2", [Column2])
)
The SELECTCOLUMNS function is used to select the columns from each table that you want to include in the UnionTable.
Jeg setter stor pris på hjelpen!
