Hi guys,
I am definitely not a programmer, but I have to find a way out of this... I would really appreciate some help!
I have the table Cost which contains cumulative costs of production.
| Performance | Material | HR | Staff |
| Performance1 | - | 5.000 | - |
| Performance2 | - | - | - |
| Performance3 | - | 4.000 | - |
| Performance4 | - | - | - |
| Performance5 | - | 3.000 | - |
| Performance6 | - | - | - |
| N/A | 30.000 | - | 10.000 |
I have the table Revenue where each row represent a stream of production.
| Performance | Time |
| Performance2 | 3 |
| Performance6 | 7 |
| Performance2 | 23 |
| Performance1 | 7 |
| Performance5 | 88 |
| Performance5 | 34 |
| Performance3 | 90 |
I have the aggregated Cost that I want to spread for each line in Revenue as a function of the production time Revenue[Time].
So I need to do Cost*(Time/TotalTime). Then I realised that I need to divide the TotalTime for each Performance.
So my idea was the following:
=RELATED(Cost[Material])* Revenue[Time]/CALCULATE(SUM(Revenue[Time]),FILTER(Revenue, Revenue[Performance]="Performance1"))
This formula is working good for Performance1 but is still multipling the other performance for a fraction of the other values...
Any help?
Thanks

Solved! Go to Solution.
@CiuCiCiao,
Create your column using the following DAX.
Column = RELATED(Cost[Material])* Revenue[Time]/ CALCULATE(SUM(Revenue[Time]),FILTER(Revenue,Revenue[Performance]=EARLIER(Revenue[Performance])))

@CiuCiCiao,
Based on your description and the above formula , I am not quite clear about your expected result. Do you want to calculate the result for each performance using the logic: Cost[Material] of each performance *(Time of each performance/ total time of all performance)? For example, for performance3, you want to get result: Cost[Material] of performance3 *(90/(3+7+23+7+88+34+90)), right? If that is the case, please use the following DAX.
Column= RELATED(Cost[Material])* Revenue[Time]/CALCULATE(SUM(Revenue[Time]),ALL(Revenue))
If the above formula doesn't help, please post your desired result based on above sample data.

First thanks for your reply!
I need the denominator to be the total time of each performance.
The formula would be Cost[Material] of each performance *(Time of each performance/ total time of each performance).
For the above example would be:
Cost[Material] of performance3 *(90/(SUM(Performance3))) OR
Cost[Material] of performance5 *(88/(SUM(88+34)))
I guess my real issue is that i am not able (in excel terms) to filter an entire column A and SUM only the filtered values of column B.
Something like:
(Column B Row / (Filter Column A for a Value and SUM Column B remaining)) ---> Then multiply for the filtered Column A Value of Another table (Cost)

Thanks a lot is working perfectly, now I just have to understand why ![]()
Thanks Again!
