Summarize Date table while keeping Day selections

Hi

 

I posted a question which was answered in the link below but I'm trying to refine it and am getting stuck

 

http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Identifying-Period-number-from-Week-number/m-p/373270

 

I have two tables - a Dates table with the following columns:

Date

Day (Sun-Sat)

Week (52 weeks in the year)

Period (13 periods in the year)

 

and a data table with the following columns

Date (connected to the Dates table)

GP TY (Gross Profit this year)

 

My original query was to show the period to date when selecting a specific week which gave me this formula:

GP TY (PTD) = SUMX( SUMMARIZE( FILTER( ALL(Dates) , Dates[Period] = MIN(Dates[Period] ) && Dates[Week] <= MAX(Dates[Week]) ) , Dates[Date] , "ABCD" , [GP TY] ) , [ABCD] )

I'd like to refine this so that it keeps any Day selections that are made using a slicer on the page (e.g. if someone wants to know how Tuesdays and Thursdays together in a period were performing). I've added in a Day column to the summarized table as follows:

GP TY (PTD) NEW = SUMX( SUMMARIZE( FILTER( ALL(Dates) , Dates[Period] = MIN(Dates[Period] ) && Dates[Week] <= MAX(Dates[Week]) ) , Dates[Date] , Dates[Day] , "ABCD" , [GP TY] ) , [ABCD] )

but I don't know how to keep the Day selections in the FILTER function. I'd guess I need to add something like "&& Dates[Day] = VALUES(Dates[Day})" but that doesn't work.

 

Any help would be appreciated - hopefully I've explained it clearly!

Hi @David4

With this measure I can get the result as your example.

Measure 4 =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( GP[GP] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLSELECTED ( Dates ),
        'Dates'[Period] = MAX ( 'Dates'[Period] )
            && 'Dates'[Week] <= MAX ( 'Dates'[Week] )
            && 'Dates'[Day] = MAX ( 'Dates'[Day] )
    )
)

Thanks Maggie - I've tweaked your measure slightly so that the totals work:

 

Measure 5 = 
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( GP[GP] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLSELECTED ( Dates ),
        'Dates'[Period] = MAX ( 'Dates'[Period] )
            && 'Dates'[Week] <= MAX ( 'Dates'[Week] )
    ),
    VALUES(Dates[Day])
)

Thanks so much for your help with this

Hi

 

I'd like to refine this so that it keeps any Day selections that are made using a slicer on the page (e.g. if someone wants to know how Tuesdays and Thursdays together in a period were performing)

Would you like to select both Tuesday and Thursday in a slicer, then the visual shows values of these two days in a period?

If it is in this case, you need turn off the Single Selected option as below.

“it keeps any Day selections” does it mean maintaining day selection while selecting a specific week

Hi Maggie

 

I've uploaded an example file Here.

 

The top table is my raw data which shows GP by day:

WeekSundayMondayTuesdayWednesdayThursdayFridaySaturdayTotal
188689650133390315822,563
2895821983202106184163,945
366453931979974451633,152
4751518143203842269113,394
53871166622856164882092,763
6497283653505120157912,864
78317046054639193012,050
82304894269047291788013,757

 

On the table titled "GP PTD - INCORRECT FOR DAYS" you can see what my current formula is giving me. At the moment it is showing the same value for each day in a week like this:

WeekSundayMondayTuesdayWednesdayThursdayFridaySaturdayTotal
12,5632,5632,5632,5632,5632,5632,5632,563
26,5086,5086,5086,5086,5086,5086,5086,508
39,6609,6609,6609,6609,6609,6609,6609,660
413,05413,05413,05413,05413,05413,05413,05413,054
52,7632,7632,7632,7632,7632,7632,7632,763
65,6275,6275,6275,6275,6275,6275,6275,627
77,6777,6777,6777,6777,6777,6777,6777,677
811,43411,43411,43411,43411,43411,43411,43411,434

 

What I'd like it to give is the period to date just for those specific days like this:

WeekSundayMondayTuesdayWednesdayThursdayFridaySaturdayTotal
188689650133390315822,563
29831,5101,6333354006499986,508
31,0491,9632,5644321,3971,0941,1619,660
41,8002,4812,7076352,2391,1202,07213,054
53871166622856164882092,763
68843991,3157907365031,0005,627
79675691,7758447991,4221,3017,677
81,1971,0582,2011,7481,5281,6002,10211,434

 

So Sunday in Week 3 is 1,049 because it is the 88 in Week 1 + 895 in Week 2 + 66 in Week 3

 

Hi @David4

 

Sorry to ask this elementary question, but how do ypu paste this tables? I´m trying to paste tables copied this way but it goes all wrong.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi @David4

Measure 4 =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( GP[GP] ),
    FILTER (
        ALLSELECTED ( Dates ),
        'Dates'[Period] = MAX ( 'Dates'[Period] )
            && 'Dates'[Week] <= MAX ( 'Dates'[Week] )
            && 'Dates'[Day] = MAX ( 'Dates'[Day] )
    )
)
