Hi All,
I am facing difficulty in creating a dashboard. Can anyone help me? Sample File here->https://github.com/ssijbabu/PowerBI
Please find the sample data below.
| Application | Division | Month | Request | Incident |
| App1 | Div1 | 12/01/2018 | 5 | 3 |
| App2 | Div1 | 12/01/2018 | 3 | 7 |
| App3 | Div2 | 12/01/2018 | 8 | 2 |
| App1 | Div1 | 01/01/2019 | 3 | 7 |
| App2 | Div1 | 01/01/2019 | 5 | 2 |
| App3 | Div2 | 01/01/2019 | 8 | 9 |
| App1 | Div1 | 02/01/2019 | 2 | 3 |
| App2 | Div1 | 02/01/2019 | 8 | 5 |
| App3 | Div2 | 02/01/2019 | 5 | 2 |
| App1 | Div1 | 03/01/2019 | 2 | 8 |
| App2 | Div1 | 03/01/2019 | 8 | 4 |
| App3 | Div2 | 03/01/2019 | 3 | 9 |
| App1 | Div1 | 04/01/2019 | 9 | 6 |
| App2 | Div1 | 04/01/2019 | 3 | 7 |
| App3 | Div2 | 04/01/2019 | 6 | 3 |
I am trying to create the following measures
1) Total Tickets - Request + Incident -> Created while loading the Data
2) Last 3 months Total Tickets Avg -> this should be dynamic based on user month selection
3) App Classification -> Calculated based on 3 months avg, if the number fall between 0-5 -Small, 6-10 -Medium, 10-20 -Large.
4) App Cost -> Same as Application classification, if the number fall between 0-5 - $1000, 6-10 -$5000, >10 -$20000.
I am facing problem with 3rd and 4th measure.
I created measure using SWITCH statement, i am getting wrong number in total.
For 3rd measure, no total should be dispalyed. For 4th measure, its not calculating the sum of rows,
So i tried to implement the same in calculated column, but receiving circular dependency error.
Can some one help me how to implement it.
Regards
Sujay
I found a good thread which addresses the exact problem:
https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Incorrect-Measure-Total/m-p/454679#M210659
BTW this post probably belongs in the Desktop forum, this forum appears to be for extensions.
You could turn off the totals from the table visual and use cards to display the summary information.
