Need Expression in DAX

Hi Everyone,

 

I need to write an expression in DAX. I need to display the set of possible values in Power BI. Please help me.

For example:

This is the Qlikview expression which I am using sum( {$<Customer = P({1<Product={‘Shoe’}>} Customer)>} Sales )

which means it returns the sales, but only those customers that ever have bought the product ‘Shoe’. The element function P( ) here returns a list of possible customers; those that are implied by the selection ‘Shoe’ in the field Product.

 

Thanks in advance

@Kavya123 So many questions. Are your Customer and Sales tables related to one another? If so then you should be able to do something along the lines of:

Measure = CALCULATE(SUM('Sales'[Sales]),'Customers'[Product]="Shoe")

If that doesn't work...Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?
Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

Also, please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
