hi i am new to power bi. i have a table
table name " value entry"
| entry no | entry type | purchase amount | sales amount | cost |
| 1 | purchase | 10 | 0 | 10 |
| 2 | Sale | 0 | 20 | 10 |
| 3 | sale | 0 | 20 | 10 |
| 4 | purchase | 10 | 0 | 10 |
i want to get the profit value, normally i am doing with excel sum if formula to get the total cost and i will deduct the total cost of entry type sale. Please help.
I can't get your logic for Profit exactly. But, to calculate total cost, you can create a measure like:
Total Cost = SUM(ValueEntry[Cost])
For the total cost of entry type sale, you can write a measure like:
Total Cost = CALCULATE(SUM(ValueEntry[Cost]),FILTER(ALL(ValueEntry),ValueEntry[entry type]="Sales"))
