SUM, Filter by Two Columns text values

Hi All,

 

I am trying to perform a calculation where I do the following

 

SUM column 1

Filter by column 2 (multiple text values)

and

Filter by column 3 (multiple text values)

Can this be done in DAX? Visaul level filtering is not an option.

Hi @Serdet 

 

Try this measure:

Measure =
VAR _filter_from_Start =
    FILTER(
        'Table',
        [Start Street] = "1st street"
            || [Start Street] = "2nd street"
            || [Start Street] = "10th street"
    )
VAR _filter_from_End =
    FILTER(
        _filter_from_Start,
        [End Street] = "2nd street"
            || [End Street] = "3rd street"
            || [End Street] = "8th street"
    )
RETURN
    SUMX( _filter_from_End, [Distance Miles] )

But the conditions is too long or in your data, is that possible to use start street not equal waterloo road?

If is , filter with the condition  

[Start Street]<>”waterloo road”

Hi @Serdet ,

 

You can create this measure:

MilesDisctance = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Distance Miles]),'Table'[Start Street]="1st street"||'Table'[Start Street]="2nd street"||'Table'[Start Street]="10th street",'Table'[End Street]="2nd street"||'Table'[End Street]="3rd street"||'Table'[End Street]="8th street")

Thanks. I have tried this measure but it seems to be doing the following

 

SUM of mileage for column 'Start Street' with text filters + SUM of mileage for column 'End Street' with text filters.

 

Instead it should be doing SUM of mileage for columns 'Start Street' and 'End Street' where both columns meet the text filter criteria.

 

Hi @Serdet ,

 

I don't think I completely understand what you mean. Could you explain a bit more what's nog working correctly?

Hi @Serdet ,

 

Could you provide some example data and expected output?

 

Hi,

 

Please see the requested below.

 

Distance MilesStart StreetEnd Street
51st street2nd street
61st streetwaterloo road
82nd streetwaterloo road
3waterloo road3rd street
6510th street8th street

 

SUM of column 'Distance Miles;

Filter column 'Start Street' to = 1st street, 2nd street, 10th street 

Filter column 'End Street' to = 2nd street, 3rd street, 8th street

 

Expexted outcome = 70

 

Hope this helps
