Dear community, I've been struggling with a problem and I can't seem to wrap my head around it, hopefully someone from the community can help me out!
I have a dataset containing CUSTOMER_ID, a yearmonth combination as PERIOD and a boolean CHECK_MARK that contains whether or not a customer passed a certain check during that period. My dataset looks like this (note that this is a single customer example, there are multiple customers spread over a larger range of PERIODs in the actual dataset):
PERIOD | CUSTOMER_ID | CHECK_MARK |
201801 | 123456 | 1 |
201802 | 123456 | 0 |
201803 | 123456 | 0 |
201804 | 123456 | 0 |
201805 | 123456 | 0 |
201806 | 123456 | 0 |
201807 | 123456 | 0 |
201808 | 123456 | 0 |
201809 | 123456 | 0 |
201810 | 123456 | 0 |
201811 | 123456 | 0 |
201812 | 123456 | 0 |
201901 | 123456 | 0 |
201902 | 123456 | 0 |
201903 | 123456 | 0 |
201904 | 123456 | 1 |
201905 | 123456 | 0 |
201906 | 123456 | 0 |
What I am trying to achieve is to evaluate for every customer on every line if in the previous period of 12 months a checkpoint has been passed. In order to help my achieve this result I have added a RANK as Calculated Column using the following DAX formula:
RANK = RANKX(TABLE;TABLE[PERIOD];;ASC;Dense)
The results should look like this:
PERIOD | CUSTOMER_ID | CHECK_MARK | RANK | NEW |
201801 | 123456 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
201802 | 123456 | 0 | 2 | 1 |
201803 | 123456 | 0 | 3 | 1 |
201804 | 123456 | 0 | 4 | 1 |
201805 | 123456 | 0 | 5 | 1 |
201806 | 123456 | 0 | 6 | 1 |
201807 | 123456 | 0 | 7 | 1 |
201808 | 123456 | 0 | 8 | 1 |
201809 | 123456 | 0 | 9 | 1 |
201810 | 123456 | 0 | 10 | 1 |
201811 | 123456 | 0 | 11 | 1 |
201812 | 123456 | 0 | 12 | 1 |
201901 | 123456 | 0 | 13 | 1 |
201902 | 123456 | 0 | 14 | 0 |
201903 | 123456 | 0 | 15 | 0 |
201904 | 123456 | 1 | 16 | 1 |
201905 | 123456 | 0 | 17 | 1 |
201906 | 123456 | 0 | 18 | 1 |
So far I've been trying the following formula's but to no avail:
NEW =
CALCULATE(
MAX(TABLE[CHECK_MARK]);
FILTER(
ALLEXCEPT(TABLE;TABLE[CUSTOMER_ID]);
TABLE[RANK] <= EARLIER(TABLE[RANK])))
NEW =
CALCULATE(
MAX(TABLE[CHECK_MARK]);
FILTER(
ALLEXCEPT(TABLE;TABLE[CUSTOMER_ID]);
TABLE[PERIOD] >= TABLE[PERIOD] - 100))
Does anyone have experience with a problem like this? Or can anyone spot where I'm going wrong in my approach?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @Anonymous
For the example and ‘Rank’ column you have created, you can create a calculated column called ‘New’ as follows.
New =
var r = 'TABLE'[RANK]
return if([CHECK_MARK]=1,1,IF(CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('TABLE'),FILTER('TABLE',[CUSTOMER_ID]=EARLIER('TABLE'[CUSTOMER_ID])&&[RANK]>=r-12&&[RANK]<=r&&[CHECK_MARK]=1))>0,1,0))
Result:
If I misunderstand the your thoughts, please inform me of your expected output. I am glad to solve the problem for you.
