Formula Help

[MRAMS]

Hi all,

I am new to Power BI Desktop and have managed to do all other formula's except this one.  If someone could help it would be greatly appreciated. 

My formula in excel adds up all the values in column 1 if the name is the same in column 2 and returns the total of all rows in each row.  This then enables me to pick up the max unavailable days.

No matter what I try in Power BI I cannot get a formula to work.  I have tried doing it in the query, in the data table and as a measure, but nothing works.  Help please.

Thank you in advance.

Michelle

DNU – Unavailable Days MCRQ	FE & Week Start Date MCRQ	NEW Column

1	KLA – 10/04/2023	3
1	KLA – 10/04/2023	3

Hi @MRAMS 

You can create a calculated column

Column = SUMX(FILTER('Table',[FE & Week Start Date MCRQ]=EARLIER('Table'[FE & Week Start Date MCRQ])),[DNU – Unavailable Days MCRQ])

Output

Hi Michelle,

Wouldn't you rather just calculate the 'Max Unavailable Days' as a measure or do you need this column for something else?

Some additional data with more combinations would be useful.
