Maybe it is an very obvious question, but I'm not sure how to search for it (in english) so I'll give it a try here.

 

I have a table with invoices with sales for a file (every file has an amount of sales).

File  invoiceid  Sales  Pax

1      1              1000    2

1      2                 500   2

2      3                 500   2

3      4                 500   1 

3      5                1000  1

4      6                1500   2

4      7                1000   2

 

What I want is an count of files grouped by the total sales amount:

Sales         #Files

0-1000           1

1000-2000     2

>2000            1

 

What is the best way to achieve this?

Hi @Jordi

 

You can do this with the help of a small PARAMETER table

 

Please check this post..

Thanks for the hint @Zubair_Muhammad

 

Added the Parameter table, and added a calculated column with this formula: (I want to count the Files within the parameters)

 

Category = 
VAR Sales =
SUM('Sales'[sales])
RETURN
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT('Sales'[File] );
FILTER (
Parameters;
Sales >= Parameters[Start]
&& Sales < Parameters[End]
)
)

 

But that return the value "1"

 

Table "Parameters"Table "Parameters"

(Column "Index" is added for ordering purposes)
