SUM of distinct values

Hi thank you for reading,

 

I have the following structure:

 

IDIncome
A1100
A1100
A2100
A3200
A3100
A3200

 

The result I want is: A1=100
                                A2=100

                                A3=300

 

So, for example if A1 has the same value 2 times I want the result to be the same value: 100

and if A3 has two 200s and one 100 I want the sum of the distinct values: 300

 

I also have another table with just:

 

ID
A1
A2
A3

 

 

Thanks for your help,

@efroseroc my dax expression should have worked without doing checking HASONEVALUE but good to hear that you found the solution.

Thanks @parry2k, I found the @Jihwan_Kim expresion easier to undestand for me.

But now that you mentioned it both expressions give me different totals but the same values.

The one on the right is the measure that doesnt use HASONEVALUE

hi @Jihwan_Kim, thank you I think managed to use your code to adapt to my situation. Please correct me if I'm wrong

Measure = IF(HASONEVALUE(Data[Income]),
                MAX(Data[Income]),
                SUMX(SUMMARIZE(Data,Data[Income]),Data[Income])
)

So if we have just one income value per ID , take the max. That would be the case of A1 where we have 100, 3 times so the result is 100.

If we have more than one income value per ID as is the case of A3 where we have [200,200,100] , sum the distinct values so 200+100=300.

 

Thanks again ! you saved me a headache

@efroseroc try this measure

 

SUM = 
SUMX ( 
    SUMMARIZE (
        'Table (3)',
        'Table (3)'[ID],
        'Table (3)'[Income], 
        "@Income", MAX ( 'Table (3)'[Income] ) 
    ), 
    [@Income] 
)
