I am using a statement to tell me whether not my goal was reached as follows:
reachedgoal = if( divide([SalesAmt] - [Goal],[Goal]) >= 0, "Goal Reached", BLANK())
I am putting it into a table that shows the percent difference between salesamt and goal and these numbers go from negative to positive. However, all of the results for the reachedgoal come out as Goal Reached. If I change the statement to > instead of >= they all show as blank. What am I doing incorrectly to yield these results and how can I fix it?
Hi @igibson,
If add a calculated column into data table, above formula can return expected results in my test. If create a measure to get results for reachedgoal, maybe you can try this:
reachedgoal measure = IF ( DIVIDE ( MAX ( [SalesAmt] ) - MAX ( [Goal] ), MAX ( [Goal] ) ) >= 0, "Goal Reached", BLANK () )
For further advice, please provide sample data and screenshot of unexpected output you have got.
Best regards,

could you not just try
reachedgoal = if([SalesAmt] > [Goal], "Goal Reached", BLANK())
and have a seperate column for showing the percent margins?

I am putting it into a table that shows the percent difference between salesamt and goal and these numbers go drom negative to positive. All of the results for the reachedgoal come out as Goal Reached. If I change the statement to > instead of >= they all show as blank.
Are you putting this formula into a custom column in your data model? I don't see how that formula would work as a measure without aggregation. This seems to work for me as a measure:
Measure 3 = IF(DIVIDE(SUM(Goals[SalesAmt]) - SUM(Goals[Goal]),SUM(Goals[Goal])) >=0,"Goal Reached",BLANK())
