Dax If statement. I am trying to convert a formular from Tableau to Power BI.

 

Tableau formular:

IF [Unit Nbr] = [Cost Ctr Nbr] then 'DRIVE Unit' else 'Non DRIVE' END

 

Power Bi Dax formular: 

 

Drive Unit = If('AP Paid unit detail'[UNIT_NBR]='Drive_In_Scope_Unit_List'[Cost Ctr Nbr], "Drive Unit", "Non Drive Unit")

 

The problem is " A single value for column 'Cost Ctr Nbr' in table 'Drive_In_Scope_Unit_List' cannot be determined. This can happen when a measure formula refers to a column that contains many values without specifying an aggregation such as min, max, count....."

 

How can i fix this? 

 

Thank you so much

Hi @Anonymous 

Assume you have tables

You could create a column/ measure in "AP Paid unit detail" table

Column =
VAR lookvalue =
    LOOKUPVALUE (
        Drive_In_Scope_Unit_List[Cost Ctr Nbr],
        Drive_In_Scope_Unit_List[Cost Ctr Nbr], 'AP Paid unit detail'[UNIT_NBR]
    )
RETURN
    IF ( lookvalue = BLANK (), "Non DRIVE", "DRIVE Unit" )

Measure =
VAR lookvalue =
    LOOKUPVALUE (
        Drive_In_Scope_Unit_List[Cost Ctr Nbr],
        Drive_In_Scope_Unit_List[Cost Ctr Nbr], MAX ( 'AP Paid unit detail'[UNIT_NBR] )
    )
RETURN
    IF ( lookvalue = BLANK (), "Non DRIVE", "DRIVE Unit" )

Try to use below measure:
Drive Unit = If(Sum('AP Paid unit detail'[UNIT_NBR]) =Sum('Drive_In_Scope_Unit_List'[Cost Ctr Nbr]) , "Drive Unit", "Non Drive Unit")
