Hi!
I am trying to add a calculated row to a profit & loss statement matrix visual
(very simplified in this post)
This is what I have:
This is what I want:
Here Tax is calculated as 25% of "Total before tax"
And these are my tables and relations:
Does this has an easy solution? (one that I don't see....)
Thanks!

hi, @bzjens
For your requirement, you could try this way as below:
Step1:
Add a row for Tax in Accounts table as below:
Step2:
Add a measure by this logic
Measure =
VAR _table =
SUMMARIZE (
Accounts,
Accounts[category],
Accounts[subcategory],
"a", IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( Accounts[category] ) = "Total before Tax",
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Transactions[Value] ), ALLSELECTED ( Accounts ) ) * 0.25,
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Transactions[Value] ) )
)
)
RETURN
IF (
HASONEVALUE ( Accounts[category] ),
IF (
SELECTEDVALUE ( Accounts[category] ) = "Total before Tax",
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Transactions[Value] ), ALLSELECTED ( Accounts ) ) * 0.25,
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Transactions[Value] ) )
),
SUMX ( _table, [a] )
)
Then use this measure in matrix visual.
Result:
and here is sample pbix file, please try it.
