calculation

[Anonymous]

Hi,
I calculated a column:
Orders with standard factor = IF('Fact_UM'[Factor] >'Fact_UM'[Standrad factor], 'Fact_UM '[Menge])
I would like to add that if standard factor is blank than column will show "no data"  in that row. 

Thank you for help!

Hi @Anonymous ,

Due to the limitations of calculated columns, using calculated columns will result in an error of "Expressions that yield variant data-type cannot be used to define calculated columns", it is recommended that you change the measure values and display them as a visual in the table.

(1)We can create a measure. 

Measure = IF(SUM('Table'[Column])==BLANK(),"no data",SUM('Table'[Column]))

(2)Then the result is as follows.

hi @Anonymous 

try lik

Column=

IF(

Fact_UM'[Standrad factor]=BLANK,

"no data",

IF('Fact_UM'[Factor] >'Fact_UM'[Standrad factor], 'Fact_UM '[Menge])

)

Yes, I was trying this but doesn't work. I get this error "Expressions that yield variant data-type cannot be used to define calculated columns."

Hi @Anonymous could you paste some sample data and let us have a look?

- So,  factor is a calculated column:
Factor =

CALCULATE (

DIVIDE (

SUM ( 'Fact_UM'[x] ),

SUM ( 'Fact_UM2'[y] )

),

ALLEXCEPT ('Fact_UM', 'Fact_UM'[Factory Order nr.]))

- Standard Factor has many Blanks 

Unfortunately, I cannot paste any data 😞
