Hey Folks,
I have a problem with a data table and cant figure out the problem. It would help me a lot if you have an idea on this issue.
There is a data table like this
| Name | date | value |
| a | 2023-10-20 | 1 |
| b | 2023-10-20 | 1 |
| a | 2023-10-21 | 1 |
| a | 2023-10-22 | 1 |
| a | 2023-10-22 | 1 |
he value in the value Column is always 1, the values in the other rows can be different.
In this example the result for "a" = 4, "b" = 1
For my Visualition I need a table which looks like this:
| Category | Sum |
| 1-3 days | 1 |
| 4-10 day | 1 |
I ve managed to create a measure which shows me the category text ("1-3 days", "4-10 days") if I combine it with the "Name" column. But I cant summarize just the Category column.
Is there any way to solve this?
Greetings
Rico
"Category" is not a colomn in the data table. "Category" is the value which is Calculated from the measure. So I guess this wont work.
This is the DAX of the measure:
I need this for an absence overview. I want to know how many absence days have been totally spent in the 1-3 days range, 4-10 days range and so on.
@LBarto90 OK, try this then:
Measure =
VAR __Category = [Anzahl krank_Kategorie]
VAR __Table = SUMMARIZE('Table', [Name], "__Count", COUNTROWS('Table'))
VAR __One2Three = COUNTROWS(FILTER(__Table, [__Count]<4))
VAR __MoreThan4 = COUNTROWS(FILTER(__Table, [__Count]>3))
VAR __Result = IF(__Category = "1-3", __One2Three, __MoreThan4)
RETURN
__Result
@LBarto90 If I am understanding correctly, perhaps something like this:
Measure =
VAR __Category = MAX('CategoriesTable'[Category])
VAR __Table = SUMMARIZE('Table', [Name], "__Count", COUNTROWS('Table'))
VAR __One2Three = COUNTROWS(FILTER(__Table, [__Count]<4))
VAR __MoreThan4 = COUNTROWS(FILTER(__Table, [__Count]>3))
VAR __Result = IF(__Category = "1-3", __One2Three, __MoreThan4)
RETURN
__Result
