Good afternoon everyone,
To request your support, I am starting in Power BI, and I need to perform the calculation of the column: consumptionCalculated, this value is calculated:
1.- When the father does not have a value in the column: consumption and its value is dependent on the consumption of its children. For example:
consumoCalculado de PadreA = consumo Hijo1dePadreA + consumo Hijo2dePadreB
consumoCalculado de PadreA = 200 + 300
consumoCalculado de PadreA = 500
2.- When the parent or children have a value in the column: consumption,
consumoCalculado de PadreC = consumo
consumoCalculado de PadreC = 100
consumoCalculado de Hijo1dePadreB = consumo
consumoCalculado de Hijo1dePadreB = 100
La tabla de datos de ejemplo:
clavePadre | clave | nombre | consumo | inventario | saldo | consumoCalculado |
cve001 | PadreA | 1000 | 800 | 500 | ||
cve004 | PadreB | 200 | ||||
cve007 | PadreC | 100 | 600 | 500 | 100 | |
cve001 | cve002 | Hijo1dePadreA | 200 | 200 | ||
cve001 | cvd003 | Hijo2dePadreA | 300 | 300 | ||
cve004 | cve005 | Hijo1dePadreB | 100 | 200 | 100 | 100 |
cve004 | cve006 | Hijo2dePadreB | 100 | 300 | 200 | 100 |
In advance, I thank you for your valuable support.
Greetings, Cipriano.

Hi @Cipriano ,
Please try this code to create a calcualted column.
consumoCalculado =
VAR _Child =
SUMMARIZE (
FILTER (
'Table',
'Table'[nombre] <> EARLIER ( 'Table'[nombre] )
&& CONTAINSSTRING ( 'Table'[nombre], EARLIER ( 'Table'[nombre] ) )
),
[nombre]
)
VAR _SUMCHILD =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table'[consumo] ),
FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[nombre] IN _Child )
)
RETURN
IF ( 'Table'[consumo] <> BLANK (), 'Table'[consumo], _SUMCHILD )
Result is as below.
