Weighted Values

Dear Community,

 

I want to calculate a simple weighted value. 

The total and filter resistant sum a value should be divided by the total and filter resistant sum of weight. Next this number should be multiplied with the target variable by row.

Hi @raymond

Create a measure

final_output =
DIVIDE (
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( Sheet2[value] ), ALL ( Sheet2 ) ),
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( Sheet2[weight] ), ALL ( Sheet2 ) )
)
    * MAX ( [weight] )

Hi @raymond

I didn't realize the column "weight value" is what you want until now.

to get the same value as  "weight value" , you could set the date format of "final_output" as below.

@v-juanli-msft Thanks for getting back to me. 

One question. What is the difference between the column "weight value" and "final_output"? If there is a calculation for the first, could you share that as well?
