Slicing measures in calculated table
- 9 years ago
Hi jscottNRG,
According to the description above, you should be able to follow steps below to reorganize the measures on a Table visual, instead of using a calculated table.
I assume you have table with a column called "Inspection Item" of value "Item 1", "Item 2"(if you don't have it yet, you need to add it first).
1. Use the formula below to create a new measure for "Pass Count".
Pass Count = SWITCH ( FIRSTNONBLANK ( 'Table1'[Inspection Item], 1 ), "Item 1", 'My Calcs'[Item 1 Pass], "Item 2", 'My Calcs'[Item 2 Pass], 0 )2. Use the formula below to create a new measure for "Fail Count".
Fail Count = SWITCH ( FIRSTNONBLANK ( 'Table1'[Inspection Item], 1 ), "Item 1", 'My Calcs'[Item 1 Fail], "Item 2", 'My Calcs'[Item 2 Fail], 0 )Note: Just replace "Table1" with your real table name that has the "Inspection Item" column.
3. Then you should be able to show the "Inspection Item" column with the new "Pass Count" and "Fail Count" measure on the Table visual. :smileyhappy:

Many thanks for your reply scottsen -- that makes sense, and I suspected that the issue was something like what you describe. Do you have a suggestion for reorganizing the measures in the way I've depicted? I'd describe the measures as summary data, so by design I'm losing the observation-level identifiers (i.e. master key), which makes establishing a relationship between the calculated table and the source tables tricky, at least given my limited experience level!
Would probably need to see more of your model (tables, relationships, etc) to provide further insight.
Maybe... avoid the calculated table? :)
