SUMX with modifications

Hi,

I have a table with 3 columns, Item, Unit of Measure, and Quantity.

 

 

ItemUnit of MeasureQuantity
Akg1
Bmg1000000
Cmg1000000
Amg1000000


I want to add a measure to sum the quantities, but differently depending on the Unit of Measure for each row. If Unit of Measure = "kg", then Quantity X 1000000, else Quantity.

 

The resulting table would look like the following:

ItemTotal
A2000000
B1000000
C1000000

Try this, where Table1 is the table you show:

 

1. Set Table1[ID] in the rows of a matrix visual

2. Create this measure and place it in values of the matrix:

 

Measure =
SUMX (
    Table1,
    IF (
        Table1[Unit of Measure] = "kg",
        Table1[Quantity] * 1000000,
        Table1[Quantity]
    )
)

So, something like:

 

Measure = 
VAR __table = SUMMARIZE('Table4',[Item],[Unit of Measure],"__quantity",IF([Unit of Measure]="kg",SUM([Quantity])*1000000,SUM([Quantity])))
RETURN
SUMX(__table,[__quantity])

?
