Target Value for Gauge Metric When Filtering

Hr/Lin KM = 
var t=
SUMMARIZE('Table1','Table1'[Pass],
"Sum KM",SUM('Table1'[Linear KM]),
"Sum Time",SUM('Table1'[Hours]))

return SUMX(t,[Sum Time]/[Sum KM])

I currently have the above formula in reference to my original post:
https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Divide-SUMs-based-on-another-column-then-SUM-results/m-p/46...

It works wonderfully and I am currently using it with a Gauge visualizer to display a metric. However, I want to create a target metric that is static and the target keeps matching my value. The target should always be the average of all values when I filter to a single reference.

Hi @Anonymous

If my understanding is correct, you want the target value keeps the same value regardless of the selection from the slicer.

Based on your previous measure, create a column

column = var t=SUMMARIZE('Table1',Table1[Pass],"Sum KM",SUM(Table1[Linear KM]),"Sum Time",SUM(Table1[Time]))
         return SUMX(t,[Sum Time]/[Sum KM])

Then create measures

Measure = var t=SUMMARIZE('Table1',Table1[Pass],"Sum KM",SUM(Table1[Linear KM]),"Sum Time",SUM(Table1[Time]))
          return SUMX(t,[Sum Time]/[Sum KM])

Measure 2 = IF(HASONEVALUE(Table1[Pass]),[Measure],MAX([column]))

This still doesn't quite get me where I want.

 

I still want it to be a dynamic target, depending on filtering. 

 

If I filter by a single task, then I want the target to stay as if it were counting all values of all the tasks, but if i filter by a value on the pie chart, I want the target for that to be for all the tasks of that single value.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Can you provide a pbix file with both the actual and target measures defined.

 

Thanks,



I hope this helps,
Richard

@richbenmintzIt is company info and I don't think I can share the file. I have attached images of the behavior that I am looking for.All TestsAll TestsFilter 1 TestFilter 1 Test
