Summarizing a column from another table while using a slicer
Hi! I have two tables with the following, in a one-to-many relationship:
Data
| ID | Value |
| AB | $1 |
| XY | $2 |
| CZ | $3 |
Activities
| ID | Name | Status |
| AB | Bobby | In Progress |
| XY | Billy | Complete |
| AB | Bobby | Complete |
| XY | Benny | In Progress |
| AB | Billy | Waiting |
| CZ | Benny | Complete |
In the report I have a slicer to select a Name and a table of Data, where I want to show the progress of activities for the selected Name. This should be summarised, so show In Progress if there is anything in progress, if not show Not Started if there is any, if not show Waiting if there is any, if not show Complete if there is any, else leave it blank. Ideally, this will be the result:
[Billy selected in Name slicer]
Data
| ID | Value | Status |
| AB | $1 | Waiting |
| XY | $2 | Complete |
[Bobby selected in Name slicer]
Data
| ID | Value | Status |
| AB | $1 | In Progress |
[Benny selected in Name slicer]
Data
| ID | Value | Status |
| XY | $2 | In Progress |
| CZ | $3 | Complete |
There are many more names and IDs, but only a few Statuses. How can this be set up?
Hi, Alex_
Accord to your description, I think you can create a measure to display in table visual.
Like this:
Measure = VAR a = VALUES ( Activities[Status] ) RETURN IF ( "In Progress" IN a, "In Progress", IF ( "Waiting" IN a, "Waiting", IF ( "Complete" IN a, "Complete" ) ) )If it doesn’t solve your problem, please feel free to ask me.
