Slow DAX measure

Hi Experts

I have the following measure which works out the p value and tau value for each row in my fact table which has 250000 row in it..

Both the p value and tau value are measures themselves is there any way I could speed up my run time which is current 2 minutes PBI Services and 42 sec desktop.

Downward =CALCULATE ( COUNTA ( 'PMS_COMPLAINT'[MATERIAL_ID] ),FILTER (ALLSELECTED ('PMS_FINANCIAL_PDS'[ROLL12_COMPLETE_PDS_IND] ), MAX('_Measures'[p-value])<=0.05 && 'PMS_FINANCIAL_PDS'[TAU 1] < 0)) +0

your code could look something like this

Downward =
CALCULATE (
    COUNTA ( 'PMS_COMPLAINT'[MATERIAL_ID] ),
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'PMS_FINANCIAL_PDS' ), MAX ( [p-value] ) <= 0.05 && [TAU 1] < 0 )
) + 0

 

But, are '_Measures'[p-value] a variable in this measure? It is not part of the code you posted.

Hi, @Anonymous ,

 

Just had a look at your measure.

Are '_Measures[p-value] and 'PMS_FINANCIAL_PDS'[TAU 1] measures? It is considered best practise to reference measures without prefixing with table-names, it makes it easier to read and understand code.

 

Are you sure the ALLSELECTED-function is necessary? It is a tricky function: The definitive guide to ALLSELECTED

What do you want to achieve with ALLSELECT? Could it be replaced with ALL or ALLEXCEPT?

 

Cheers,
Sturla

Hi Sturla
Are '_Measures[p-value] and 'PMS_FINANCIAL_PDS'[TAU 1] measures? YES
NOT SURE ON second part of question I'll try..

Also you mention It is considered best practise to reference measures without prefixing with table-names, it makes it easier to read and understand code. Do you have an example..what declare this as a variable

your code could look something like this

Downward =
CALCULATE (
    COUNTA ( 'PMS_COMPLAINT'[MATERIAL_ID] ),
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'PMS_FINANCIAL_PDS' ), MAX ( [p-value] ) <= 0.05 && [TAU 1] < 0 )
) + 0

 

But, are '_Measures'[p-value] a variable in this measure? It is not part of the code you posted.
