Calculated Measure not Summing

Hi everyone, 

 

I have a calculated measure and for some reason it's not summing correctly. This is my measure, and below you can see the results: 

Linqto Bucks Promotional Cost = 
Var true_24 = calculate(COUNTA(Orders[24 Rolling]), Orders[24 Rolling]=TRUE(), Orders[Payment Type]="Wire")
return
IF(true_24 = 2, 1000, IF(true_24=3, 2000, IF(true_24>3, 5000, 0)))

Orders[24 Rolling] is a Boolean True/False Column. 

 

I am trying to see if there's X amount of Orders[24 Rolling] = True && Orders[Payment Type]="Wire" , then assign certain value.

You can see the sum isn't working at the end. Any ideas?

This worked, I used this website to reach my solution: 

https://finance-bi.com/blog/power-bi-totals-incorrect/

Linqto Bucks Promotional Cost = 
var summarizedTable = ADDCOLUMNS ( 
SUMMARIZE ( Orders, Orders[User Id]), 
"Qualifying Orders", CALCULATE ( COUNTA(Orders[24 Rolling]), Orders[24 Rolling]=TRUE(), Orders[Payment Type]="Wire"))
return
SUMX(summarizedTable,
IF([Qualifying Orders]=2, 1000, 
IF([Qualifying Orders]=3, 2000,
IF([Qualifying Orders]>3, 3000,BLANK()))))

Hi @VahidDM , 

 

I am really not getting it. My data looks as the following: 

User IDOrder ID24hr RollingPayment Method
24100TrueUphold
30105FalseWire
45200TrueWire
45204TrueWire
24101TrueUphold
45303TrueWire

 

The desired output is the following: 

- filter for orders where payment method = wire, and 24hr rolling = True, groupby user ID

- calculate promotional cost with different IF statements 

 

if count of 2hr rolling = 2, then 1000

if count of 2hr rolling = 3, then 2000

if count of 2hr rolling > 3, then 5000

User IDSum of Count of 24hr Rolling 
where 24hr rolling = True
Promotional Cost
4532000

 

I am able to calculate the appropriate promotional cost for each user ID, but the summing isn't working using this DAX measure: 

 

 

Linqto Bucks Promotional Cost = 
Var true_24 = calculate(COUNTA(Orders[24 Rolling]), Orders[24 Rolling]=TRUE(), Orders[Payment Type]="Wire")
return
IF(true_24 = 2, 1000, IF(true_24=3, 2000, IF(true_24>3, 5000, 0)))

 

 

This worked, I used this website to reach my solution:

Linqto Bucks Promotional Cost = 
var summarizedTable = ADDCOLUMNS ( 
SUMMARIZE ( Orders, Orders[User Id]), 
"Qualifying Orders", CALCULATE ( COUNTA(Orders[24 Rolling]), Orders[24 Rolling]=TRUE(), Orders[Payment Type]="Wire"))
return
SUMX(summarizedTable,
IF([Qualifying Orders]=2, 1000, 
IF([Qualifying Orders]=3, 2000,
IF([Qualifying Orders]>3, 3000,BLANK()))))
