Sharing a montly value between all rows in your filtered table

[joeyrobbins]

Hi!

Going a little crazy trying to figure this out - I have a table of values split by month and by sales channel called 'Overheads' (see below).

What I want to do is to pull these figures into a field on my main orders database, which has line-by-line orders - matching the order date and the sales channel - but also split between the total number of orders in that channel for that month.

As you can see above, I've managed to pull through the value on each line corresponding to the month of order and the channel, (using 'RELATED' - adding a month/channel concatenation to my data query) -  but what I want to do is to divide this value by the total number of orders in that month for that channel - so that when it is summed together in a summary matrix - it produces the total 'direct cost' for the month, but will also change proportionally day by day if your date filter is not over the whole month. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi @joeyrobbins ,

Please try these measures.

TotalCosts = 
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( Overheads[Value] ),
    FILTER (
        Overheads,
        Overheads[Costs] = MAX ( 'Table'[Channel Name] )
            && Overheads[Month] = MAX ( 'Table'[Order YearMonth] )
    )
)

M_costs =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[Order No.] ),
    DIVIDE (
        [TotalCosts],
        CALCULATE (
            COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ),
            ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ),
            VALUES ( 'Table'[Channel Name] ),
            VALUES ( 'Table'[Order YearMonth] )
        )
    ),
    [TotalCosts]
)

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

@v-kkf-msft That's amazing! There's a couple of functions I haven't used before in those measures, i.e. ALLSELECTED and ISFILTERED which I'll get my head around.

This is much further than I'd managed - the only thing is that when filtered over 2 months on a summary table - only the most recent month value appears. Do you know how I can modify these date measures to combine the values when two months are in the filter?

Many thanks again, 

Joey
