DAX Calculate Sum with Filter
I would expect in the below example that in the column "ReplByQty", the first row would be 45 + 14 = 59. What am I doing wrong? Attached the sample workbook.
That is
=VAR currentSKU=Table1[SKU] RETURN CALCULATE( SUM( Table1[Qty] ), FILTER( Table1, Table1[ReplBy] = currentSKU ) )Variable is evaluating first and fixed in Returned formula
That is
=VAR currentSKU=Table1[SKU]
RETURN CALCULATE( SUM( Table1[Qty] ),
FILTER( Table1, Table1[ReplBy] = currentSKU ) )Variable is evaluating first and fixed in Returned formula
SergeiBaklan Fabulous, thank you!
Just for my understanding, why doesn't it work without the variable?
bartvana , you are welcome.
In brief, you fix current row content for scanning the table evaluating formula, without that it is not fixed. It's much better is explained here
