Adding a Filter affecting my tables returned values

[PamLeek]

Hi

I need help in that when I try to apply a BI filter it removes those items from the pivot table and then returns an infinity response.

VOS as a % of Income = SUM('Actual'[P&L Amount]) / CALCULATE(sum('Actual'[P&L Amount]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Chart of Accounts'),'Chart of Accounts'[Type] = "Income")) * -100

VOS as a % of Budget Income = SUM('Budget'[02-2022R]) / CALCULATE(sum('Budget'[02-2022R]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Chart of Accounts'),'Chart of Accounts'[Type] = "Income")) * -100

Hi， @PamLeek ；

In your case, because your dax 's conditional is [Type]="Income" and use allselected(), however you only filter [Type]="Variable Opreating", so CALCULATE(sum('Actual'[P&L Amount]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Chart of Accounts'),'Chart of Accounts'[Type] = "Income")) * -100 return 0. Because these two conditions are in conflict.

so i think you could modify the measure :

VOS as a % of Budget Income =
SUM ( 'Budget'[02-2022R] )
    / CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Budget'[02-2022R] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Chart of Accounts' ), 'Chart of Accounts'[Type] = "Income" )
    ) * -100

VOS as a % of Income =
SUM ( 'Actual'[P&L Amount] )
    / CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Actual'[P&L Amount] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Chart of Accounts' ), 'Chart of Accounts'[Type] = "Income" )
    ) * -100

Looking forword to your reply!

Hi @amitchandak  That doesn't seem to work either. See below I have Income in the table and the percentage (using my old calculation) works

but when i remove the income from the table (filter it out) it dissappears

@PamLeek , example 1 or the two ways

VOS as a % of Income =
var _1 = SUM('Actual'[P&L Amount])
var _2 = CALCULATE(sum('Actual'[P&L Amount]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Chart of Accounts'),'Chart of Accounts'[Type] = "Income"))
return
divide(_1,_2)

or

VOS as a % of Income =
var _1 = SUM('Actual'[P&L Amount])
var _2 = CALCULATE(sum('Actual'[P&L Amount]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Chart of Accounts'),'Chart of Accounts'[Type] = "Income"))
return
if(isblank(_2) , divide(_1,_2) )
