Hello,
I feel like the below should be possible without splitting the table/creating relationships but I am having a bit of trouble.
I want to create a new column where if "Different" is "Yes", then subtract the Difference from Amount 2 of ID (on a different row) that matches Subtract from ID column.
original table
ID | Amount 1 | Amount 2 | Difference | Different | Subtract from ID |
111 | 5 | 5 | 0 | No | |
222 | 10 | 5 | 5 | Yes | 111 |
final table
ID | Amount 1 | Amount 2 | Difference | Different | Subtract from ID | New Col |
111 | 5 | 5 | 0 | No | 0 | |
222 | 10 | 5 | 5 | Yes | 111 | 5 |
Thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.
It did not, I ended up just creating another table to with Subtract from ID as primary key.
Thanks for the reply from parry2k.

@alya1 add new column using this expression, change table and column name as per your model:
New Column =
IF (
Substract[Different] = "Yes",
VAR __substractId = Substract[Subtract from ID]
VAR __Amount2 = CALCULATE ( MAX ( Substract[Amount 2] ), FILTER ( ALL ( Substract ), Substract[ID] = __substractId ) )
VAR __Difference = Substract[Amount 1] - __Amount2
RETURN
__Difference,
Substract[Difference]
)
