Sum against count group

Hi,

I've a fact table of sales data where I have customerKey , saleAmount and date in each record.

customerKey may repeat for sale transactions in a period.

Now I want to calculate sum of saleAmount against count of customers divided into groups.

for example,

Count of Customer1 in sale table =3

Count of Customer2 in sale table = 5

Count of Customer3 in sale table = 8

Count of Customer4 in sale table= 4

Count of Customer5 in sale table = 2

 

count groups are 1-5, 6-10, 11-15

I need total sum of saleAmount that is calculated on the count of customer falling in above groups.

I've tried multiple solution but sum against count groups can't be achieved. Help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Try to create two columns like below:

    count_customer = CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[date]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[customerKey]))
    groups = SWITCH(TRUE(),
            'Table'[count_customer]>=1&&'Table'[count_customer]<=5,"1-5",
            'Table'[count_customer]>=6&&'Table'[count_customer]<=10,"6-10",
            ">10")

    Sample .pbix

     

    Best Regards,

    Anonymous add a new column in customer table, it is similar to ABC analysis

     

    Count in Sales Table = 
CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( SalesTable ), ALLEXCEPT ( Customer, Customer[CustomerKey] ) )

     

    Now in a table visual, use this new column (don't; summarize it since it is a number) and put the sale amount from the sales table, and you will get the result.

      parry2kThank you for your response.

      and if it is corrected ,how will we be calculating the sum of saleAmount against the grouping of customer counts.

    Anonymous it will work, but not sure why you are getting this error. Can you change Countrows to COUNT ( FactTable[CustomerKey] )
