Transfer of capacity between entities

Hi all

 

I'm new to PowerBi and I want to have the following:

 

I want to create a slicer which allows me to transfer 'capacity' from one entity to another. I.e. If the entity A has 300 capacity and entity B and C -20, I would like to create a slicer so I can transfer for example 20 capacity to entity B and 20 capacity to entity C.

I tried a what if parameter but without any success. 

 

Thank you in advance for any help!

 

Kind regards

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Is this your expected final output?

If so, please refer to this measure.

Measure =
IF (
    SUM ( Table3[Capacity] ) < 0,
    0,
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table3[Capacity] ), ALLSELECTED ( Table3 ) )
)

Hi!

 

Thanks for the help! It is the expected final output in this case, but in other cases not.

 

I want to create a dashboard where my client can see his different entities with their capacity. Further, I want to provide a sort of slicer where he can interactively transfer excess capacity to another entity.

 

I.e. A has excess capacity of 300 and B is negative 100 so we take from entity A -100 and  add to entity B +100. Entity C remains unchanged.

It could be that for another client entity C has 1000 capacity and entity A -200, so the same slicer which allows him to transfer -200 from C to add 200 to A.

 

Hope this clarifies what I need.

 

Help is very appreciated!

 

Kind regards

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Is the slicer used to specify the number to transfer? And Is it always transferring from positive entity to negative entity? Or the transfer regulation varies based on report viewer's selection?
