SUM the MAX Values

Hi everyone,

 

I browsed through several topics but couldnt find an answer...so I am writing now 🙂

 

I have a Matrix with several Max Values. The Matrix has the granularity of "City". However, I want to SUM the MAX values for that given Country.

Think of the values in the columns as people with blond, brunette and black hair. Hence in Germany we have 3 hair types in total and not 4 (which would be the sum). In Munich we have 1 hair type.

I have found a solution on my own. It was after all more simple than I have initially thought.

Value = 
MAXX( TABLE ,TABLE[Max value A] ) +
MAXX( TABLE ,TABLE[Max value B] ) +
MAXX( TABLE ,TABLE[Max value C] )

Hi @raymond ,

You could try the following measure:

Measure = CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Max value A])+MAX('Table'[Max value B])+MAX('Table'[Max value C]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Country]=MAX('Table'[Country])))

 

base  data:

And final output:

v-luwang-msft_1-1622707024226.png

Wish it is helpful for you!

 

Best Regards

Hi @raymond ,
What is your logic that Germany's sum is 3 and not 4?

Thank you.

I want to find out how many values generally occur for each country. In Germany only 3 attributes or traits occur. 

 

Think of it as people with blond, brunette and black hair. Hence in Germany we have 3 hair types and not 4. In Munich we have 1 hair type.

Hey @raymond ,

 

the following should work:

 

 

New Column = CALCULATE( MAX( myTable[Max Value A] ), ALLEXCEPT( myTable, myTable[City] ) ) + CALCULATE( MAX ( myTable[Max Value B] ), ALLEXCEPT( myTable, myTable[City] ) ) + CALCULATE( MAX ( myTable[Max Value C] ), ALLEXCEPT( myTable, myTable[City] ) )

 

 

 

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
 
Best regards
Denis

@raymond , If Max Value A , MAx Value B are column values not measure

then try

sumx(summarize(Table, Table[country], Table[city], "_1", CALCUALTE(Max(Table[Value]))), [_1])

Thank you @amitchandak and @Nathaniel_C but unfortunately this wasnt working the way it was intended.
