Stumped: return all within a category

Hi everyone, I am completely stumped on this. Within our data items are categorized by article and UPC. Article is the style, and UPC's are the sizes within that style. 

 

Below is a screenshot of where I want to end up. I want to be able to filter by a UPC, and have all UPC's returned for that article. I changed the slicer interactions to fake it for this demonstration screenshot. 

 

Desired OutcomeDesired Outcome

 

I've tried different combinations of ALL(), ALLEXCEPT(), and SELECTEDVALUE() but have only been able to get to this point below.

I feel like this has to be possible, but I am not gaining momentum. If it's not possible, can someone let me know so I can pivot and stop spinning my wheels? 

 

Thank you for taking the time to check this out. 

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

OK, the solution to this would take a bit to explain so just attaching the file. Most important point, separate, unrelated UPC table.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Formulas

The only formula I have in my file is the following, which I used as a test but not successfully

All Qty = CALCULATE(Sum([Quantity]), ALL(pqRetailSalesTransactionDetail[UPC]))

 

Data Subset

I'm using a single table right now, though am open to any possibilities that will make this work which may involve multiple tables and relationships between them.

I'm learning the ropes of the community here, thanks for the link to the posting guidelines Greg.

No worries, that's why I created that post!

 

I believe in your case in playing with your data is that in your table visualization you need to click the little drop down arrow next to your columns in your Values area and set "Don't summarize". Let me know if that works.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Hi Greg, that's good to know for other projects, but still limits me to only the UPC selected. 

 

I'm kind of trying to go backwards. If I could make it say something, it would say...Find the article of the selected UPC, then filter the visual to show all UPC's that live within that article, not only the one selected. 

 

It's counterintuitive to everything I know about filters, but DAX has opened a whole new world of what's possible.

Thank you for your reply.

Oh, I think I get what you are trying to do. So, let me state this back to you to make sure I understand. You want to pick a UPC. That UPC is tied to a an article. You want to return all other rows that have that same Article ID, correct?

Yes exactly! Thanks for saying that so much more poetically than my attempt.

Greg, this is amazing. I almost gave up on this. Thank you so much for your help, I'm going to dissect what you did and recreate it. I appreciate your time and effort here! This has a huge impact on our organization and I can think of many ways I will use it in other applications as well. 

 

Thank you again!

Awesome! Glad it's of use!
