SUM of specific column based on measure selected, with respect to time slicer

Hi everyone,

 

I have a table similar to the sample below

 

 Date  Route no.  Customer  Route Cost A Route Cost B Route Cost C 
01-Oct                  1 A   18,000    
01-Oct                  1 A       
01-Oct                  1 A       
01-Oct                  1 A       
01-Oct                  1 A       
03-Oct                  2 B   21,000         444.01         166.50
03-Oct                  2 A       
03-Oct                  2 A       
03-Oct                  2 C       
03-Oct                  2 C       
03-Oct                  2 A       
03-Oct                  2 B       
04-Oct                  3 A   15,725.27           620.73
04-Oct                  3 A       
04-Oct                  3 A       
04-Oct                  3 C       
04-Oct                  3 C       

 

What I'm trying to do is return the total cost of each customer, based on 1) the selected customer, and 2) the time slicer.

 

For example, if I choose customer A and set slicer to 01/10/2020 - 03/10/2020, I would get 18000 + 21000 = 39000 as result.

 

Your help would be much appreciated!

Hi @Anonymous 

First select "Route Cost" columns and unpivot columns.

Create a measure

Measure = SUM('Table'[Value])

value 2100 belongs to customer b.

For the date, you should create a date dimension and join with your date and use the filter from date dimension

Customer if you create a dimension(Separate Table) it would better. Or you can use the filter from the same table

 

Measure like this should work

Measure =calculate(sum(Table[Route Cost A])+ sum(Table[Route Cost B])+ sum(Table[Route Cost C]))

Hi @amitchandak , thank you for your fast response.

 

I already have separate "Calendar" and "Customer" table in my model and tried your measure. But the problem is that when Customer A is selected, all rows of customer different than A will be removed. Therefore some of the cost for A will not be counted, and some cost not for A will be counted.

 

Can you please help me with another solution?
