Simple GroupBy Question
- 4 years ago
powerbienthuzi looks like you need a derivedTbl, Can you try this
derivedTbl= groupby(PnL_Data, PnL_Data[deID], PnL_Data[pstartdate], PnL_Data[pperiod],"sum", SUMX(CURRENTGROUP(),PnL_Data[AccruedCompensation]))SUMAMRIZE has more layers than it looks

What is the expected result? Are you trying to do this in the query editor or as a report visual or something else?

Hi Alexis - This would be a report visual andI rather have as it's own table since I want to add other columns to it.

OK. What are you currently getting and what are you trying to get your visual to look like?
You shouldn't need any fancy DAX to do basic aggregations. Just drag the column you want to group on and the column you want to sum into your visual. (You may need to tell it not to aggregate pperiod.)

I see. I have deleted my code for groupby and am trying to get it in a table format using Summary now
Short PnL = SUMMARIZE(PnL_Data,PnL_Data[deID],PnL_Data[pstartdate],PnL_Data[pperiod],"total compensation", SUM(PnL_Data[AccruedCompensation]))but the aggregation is not adding up right so I'm sure I made a mistake.This is the picture of the result I'm getting:ā
