    Hi pxg08680,

     

    According to your description above, you should be able to use the formula below to create a new measure and show it on the report to get the actual difference. :smileyhappy:

     

    Diff =
SUM ( CommercialBuyIntentVisits[MetricValue] )

NewMeasure = IF(SUM(CubeData[CommercialBuyIntentVisits]) = SUM(CommercialBuyIntentVisits[MetricValue]), 1, 0)

 

 

I have used this dax query to see if there is any difference between two data columns and represeted as 1 or 0.

Now I want to find the acutal difference between the values.

 

How do i do that..

 

 

Thank You
