Shape Map Visual Question

[DGID]

Hello, 

I am trying to use a shape map to show the highest sales channel category by order quantity when the location is selected in a slicer. The other visuals I have on the page seem to be working correctly but the shape map is not making sense to me. 

In the first image attached I have selected Billings, Montana which has an Online Order quantity of 118 Units making it the highest Sales Channel for that city. However when just the city is selected in the slicer the shape map shows the Distributor color and amount.

When nothing is selected it 'sort of' works. As shown in the second image Montana is the right color but there are other states/cities that are not.

I have tried creating a DAX formula for a MAXX column but have not had any luck as of yet.

Please let me know if you need any additional information  from me.

Thank you in advance

@DGID So then how are the Region, State and Location related to the Sales table?

[DGID]

@Greg_Deckler I pulled the State and Location Name from the Store Locations Table. Region has it's own table. The connection to the Sales from the Store Location table is the Store ID and the Regions Table is connected to the Store Locations Table by State code.

Not sure if it is directly related but there was a region column in the Sales Team Table. I feel that it should be connected to the Regions table but it creates a many to many relationship. I was not sure what would be the best way to create a bridging table to handle that situation so I left it alone.

Below is a screenshot of my Model tab for reference.

@DGID So you don't have any states that have multiple sales channels?

[DGID]

@Greg_Deckler from what I can see yes, the states for the most part have orders from each of the sales channels. There are very few that do not have at least one for each particular channel category. 

In the two screenshots below I have created a matrix with order qantity and sales channel by state code. The InStore channel and Online channel both share states. 

[Greg_Deckler]

@DGID So then what is the "right" color for a state??

[DGID]

@Greg_Deckler  I would like for it to show whichever channel has the highest orders for that state. The it seems that the states change colors when they themselves are selected in the splicer; not showing the max either but just the first out of the categories, I think. 

[Greg_Deckler]

@DGID Yeah, probably not really possible? Not really how that is designed to work.

[DGID]

Ok @Greg_Deckler thank you for looking into this. I really wonder what is causing it to change color to begin with. For example the distibutor channel is not even represented in this state however when it's selected in the slicer it shows data?

Actually I went to my test matrix and saw that there were 72 orders in that same state for the distributor channel (compared to the much smaller amounts shown by the splicer) so I think somthing is wrong with my setup. Also the In-store amount is showing as 64 on the matrix?

[Greg_Deckler]

@DGID Not sure this question can be answered with the information provided. The color is coming from the Legend field which is Sales Channel column or measure? Would have to understand the underlying data.

[DGID]

@Greg_Deckler  Yes you are correct. The color is coming from the Legend field which is currently the Sales Channel, which is a column. I am still pretty new to Power BI so please let me know if you need more background information on the data.

Thank you
