Switch Into another Measure

[johnce1234]

Good Evening, 

I am having a little issue with a measure that goes into my switch

I have a schema as follows

G/L Entries (Base data)  (Mapped to Account Category code 1 to many)

G/L Account Categories (Mapped to report schema via the codes below 1 to many)

Report Schema

Report Schema 

ReportLineID

IS0100

IS0200

IS0500

IS0800

BS1

BS2

BS3

Basically want a switch statement to tell me when I have BS3 selected sum all the G/L entry table amounts that are mapped to IS1 IS2 and IS3

Below Measures

BS Switch = SWITCH(TRUE() ,

SELECTEDVALUE('Report Structure'[ReportLine ID]) = "BS3" , [BS PL Amount],

[BS Amount]

)

BS PL Amount = VAR SelectedDate = Max('Calendar Table'[Date])

RETURN

SUMX(

    Filter(

        ALL('Calendar Table'),

        'Calendar Table'[Date] <= SelectedDate

    ),

    Calculate(Sum(g_L_Entrys[amount]),

    FILTER(

            'g_L_Account_Categorys',

            'g_L_Account_Categorys'[reportid] IN {"IS0500" , "IS0100" , "IS0200", "IS0800" }

    )

))

It will not bring any figures against this, I tested the switch function with just a value and this works. 

TIA

First, I'll address the SWITCH statement in your "BS Switch" measure:

BS Switch = SWITCH(TRUE(),
    SELECTEDVALUE('Report Structure'[ReportLine ID]) = "BS3", [BS PL Amount],
    [BS Amount]
)

The SWITCH function here checks if the selected ReportLine ID is "BS3" and returns [BS PL Amount] if true, otherwise [BS Amount]. This part of the code looks correct at first glance.

Now, let's focus on your "BS PL Amount" measure:

BS PL Amount = 
VAR SelectedDate = MAX('Calendar Table'[Date])
RETURN
SUMX(
    FILTER(
        ALL('Calendar Table'),
        'Calendar Table'[Date] <= SelectedDate
    ),
    CALCULATE(
        SUM(g_L_Entrys[amount]),
        FILTER(
            'g_L_Account_Categorys',
            'g_L_Account_Categorys'[reportid] IN {"IS0500", "IS0100", "IS0200", "IS0800" }
        )
    )
)

This measure seems to be designed to calculate the sum of G/L Entry amounts based on specific conditions related to dates and report IDs.

Here are a few things to check:

1. Make sure that 'Report Structure'[ReportLine ID] is correctly associated with the "BS3" value in your dataset.
2. Ensure that your 'Calendar Table' and 'g_L_Account_Categorys' tables are appropriately linked with the relevant columns (e.g., Date and reportid).
3. Double-check your data to see if there are entries in the 'g_L_Entrys' table that match the conditions specified in your FILTER clauses.
If all these aspects are correct, the problem might be related to the data or how the tables are structured. Check if your data is correctly loaded, and there are no filters or slicers affecting the results when viewing your visualizations.

Additionally, consider using the DAX function SUMMARIZE to understand the data within your tables and ensure that the relationships are set up correctly.
