SUMX HELP

Good morning,

 

I hope you can help me,

 

I created a measure to calculate the opportunity $ to fulfill pending orders, the items can be repeated in different orders, this makes that when I multiply the actual inventory by order to order, it doubles, triples the opportunity value, I tried to apply a filter, but the SUMX function does not allow me.

 

Is there any other way to do it?

 

DAX CODE When I multiply the value:

 

Opportunity $ = SUMX(Backorder,Backorder[B/O value] * RELATED('Inventory with location'[Qty on hand]))

 

DAX CODE:

Opportunity $ = SUMX(Backorder,Backorder[B/O value] * RELATED('Inventory with location'[Quantity available]),
FILTER(Backorder, Backorder[B/O qty] >= 'Inventory with location'[Qty on hand] ))}

 

Thanks for your help!

@Alejandro9805 I missed a comma:

Opportunity $ = 
  SUMX(
    FILTER(Backorder, Backorder[B/O qty] >= RELATED('Inventory with location'[Qty on hand]) ),
    Backorder[B/O value] * RELATED('Inventory with location'[Quantity available])
  )

@Alejandro9805 Try this:

 

Opportunity $ = 
  SUMX(
    FILTER(Backorder, Backorder[B/O qty] >= RELATED('Inventory with location'[Qty on hand]) )
    Backorder[B/O value] * RELATED('Inventory with location'[Quantity available])
  )

 

Otherwise, please post sample data and expected output

@Greg_Deckler 

Thanks for you help,

 

I did what you said,

DAX CODE:

Opportunity $ = SUMX(
FILTER(Backorder,Backorder[B/O qty] >= RELATED('Inventory with location'[Qty on hand]) )
Backorder,Backorder[B/O value] * RELATED('Inventory with location'[Qty available])
)

Error:

"Backorder" syntax is not correct.(DAX(SUMX( FILTER(Backorder,Backorder[B/O cant.] >= RELATED('Inventory with location'[Quantity available]) ) Backorder,Backorder[B/O value] * RELATED('Inventory with location'[Quantity available])))).
