Getting data from another table to visualization

‎06-27-2018 03:05 AM

Hi,

I have a table BestClubZikui 5-20181 which is the customer file, and Sales file.

In the visualization I build a table from the sales table to show the Pharmacy code, Total, Count of visits, and other fields.

I want to add from customers table the number of customers registered in this pharmacy.

This Messuere: No. of customers per Pharmacy = DISTINCTCOUNT('BestClubZikui 5-20181'[CustomerKey])

gives me the same number in all the lines. The relationship is one to many.

If I change the connection to BOTH it gives Blanks for all rows.

I tryed RELATED bu it does not accept it.

How can I put the data from customers in the visualisation?

Hi @gtamir,


It matters in your case because you are joining on CustomerKey which has no matching values between the two tables so the inner join will result in 0 rows. 


I have to say this that please spend sometime on modelling data before you start creating measures and columns. Your main two tables have redundant columns which makes the third person wonder what actually is going on in the model. I would suggest you to remove unwanted columns to make the model clean.

I have solved the problem only keeping in mind that you need to count customers from BestClubZikui 5-20181 table for PharmacyCode in BestClubSales 5-2018.

 

Follow below steps:
1. Create a separate table which contains unique PharmacyCode from BestClubSales 5-2018 table. It can be done by using DAX or Power Query in QueryEditor. Here is the DAX expression for that:

DimPharmacyCode = DISTINCT(VALUES('BestClubSales 5-2018'[PharmacyCode]))

2. Create a relationship between DimPharmacyCode and BestClubZikui 5-20181 on Pharmacy Code column.

3. Use the PharmacyCode column in DimPharmacyCode in your visual table and remove the old one. You will get the desired count.

 

Sending you pbix of the same.
