HI @h_l,

I'd like to suggest you add a new calculated column to table2 to extract the fact page id:

PageID =
PATHITEM (
    SUBSTITUTE ( [Page], "/", "|" ),
    PATHLENGTH ( SUBSTITUTE ( [Page], "/", "|" ) )
)

Then you can use this field and the date range of the 'week number' to summary records.

Measure =
VAR currDate =
    MAX ( Table[Action Date] )
VAR _list =
    CALCULATETABLE (
        VALUES ( Table[Campaign Page ID] ),
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( Table ), YEAR ( [Action Date] ) = currDate ),
        VALUES ( Table[Action Week] )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table2[Clicks] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( Table2 ),
            [PageID]
                IN _list
                    && WEEKNUM ( [Date] ) = WEEKNUM ( currDate )
                    && YEAR ( [Date] ) = YEAR ( currDate )
        )
    )

@h_l I'm not entirely certain what you are going for exactly but seems like a SUMX over a SUMMARIZE table. Question I have is what constitutes "unique ids"? Is that your Page?

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Hi @Greg_Deckler ,

 

Please let me clarify in a more clearer way.

In Table1, [ID] stores value, they are repeated some times, by [Week] or [Type]

h_l_2-1622770500281.png

 

 

the [ID] values contained in [Page] in Table2

h_l_1-1622770256214.png

 

Please let me know if there is a way to create Measure, to Sum Impressions for all ID value by Week, or only for one week, such as: WK10.

Repeated ID shall only be Sum by 1 time.

That's say, in WK10, Sum of Impressions of news012808 shall not double.

 

Appreciated if you can help.

 

BTW: in fact I asked similar question in this post, but didn't have answer, so I tried to think and ask in another way like this post.

 

Thanks.

Hi,

In an MS Excel file, paste both datasets and show the expected result very clearly, along with formulas

Hi @Ashish_Mathur ,

 

If in excel, I'll proceed by steps.

But the final data in step3 is need to be breakdown by date in chart, which is not applicable.

h_l_0-1622777423772.png

Here is the excel sample file.

 

And here is the PBI sample data.

The purpose is I can find a way, either by create Measure or any else, to get the Sum of Impressions and add into trend line.

Hope you can help.

 

Thanks in advance.
