Syntax error when add multiple colums

Hi,

I try to create a new table with multiple new colums, but I get a syntax error.
When I Ctrl+X Ctrl+V the last lines of code and swift the positions of the two filters the later will not work anymore, while the first one starts to work.

Does anyone know where I made the mistake?

Hi  @ThomasWeppler  ,

You can change the Dax function after Return to try the following sub-functions:

Var x2=
Filter(
ADDCOLUMNS(x1,”total estimate”,[Estimate hours] + [Sub assignment estimate] ),
[ Sub assignment estimate] <> BLANK())
Return
filter(
ADDCOLUMNS ( x2,”total Registration”,[Registered hours] + [Sub assignment registration]),
[Sub assignment registration] <>BLANK())

Hello @ThomasWeppler 
Please check the below codes and change the table and measures accordingly.
Summarized table =
VAR x1 =
SUMMARIZE (
'Recordings',
'Recordings'[ID],
'Recordings'[Actor],
Recordings[Hour],
"Estimate hours", DIVIDE ( Recordings[Hour], 60 ),
"Registered hours", DIVIDE ( Recordings[Hour], 60 ),
"Sub assignment estimate",
DIVIDE (
SUMX (
FILTER ( ALL ( Recordings ), Recordings[Hour] = EARLIER ( Recordings[Hour] ) ),
Recordings[Hour]
),
60
),
"Sub assignment registration",
DIVIDE (
SUMX (
FILTER ( ALL ( Recordings ), Recordings[Hour] = EARLIER ( Recordings[Hour] ) ),
Recordings[Hour]
),
60
)
)
VAR x2 =
FILTER (
ADDCOLUMNS (
x1,
"total estimate", [Estimate hours] + [Sub assignment estimate]
),
[Sub assignment estimate] <> BLANK ()
)
VAR x3 =
FILTER (
ADDCOLUMNS (
x1,
"total Registration", [Registered hours] + [Sub assignment registration]
),
[Sub assignment registration] <> BLANK ()
)
RETURN
UNION ( x2, x3 )

Hello @ThomasWeppler 

Check your second last filter end bracket.

@ThomasWeppler , Can you please share formula in text format. I think some paranthesis are misplaced

Sure

 

Summarized table =
VAR x1 =
SUMMARIZE (
'2891_assignment',
'2891_assignment'[assignmentNumber],
'2891_assignment'[deadline],
'2891_assignment'[estimate],
'2891_assignment'[startdate],
'2891_assignment'[timeusage],
"Estimate hours",
DIVIDE('2891_assignment'[estimate], 60),
"Registered hours",
DIVIDE('2891_assignment'[timeusage], 60),
"Sub assignment estimate",
DIVIDE(
SUMX (
FILTER ( ALL ( '2891_assignment' ), [Underopgver] = EARLIER ( '2891_assignment'[assignmentNumber] ) ),
[estimate]
), 60),
"Sub assignment registration",
DIVIDE(
SUMX (
FILTER ( ALL ( '2891_assignment' ), [Underopgver] = EARLIER ( '2891_assignment'[assignmentNumber] ) ),
[timeusage]
), 60)
)
RETURN
FILTER (
ADDCOLUMNS ( x1, "total estimate", [Estimate hours] + [Sub assignment estimate]),
[Sub assignment estimate] <> BLANK ()
)
FILTER (
ADDCOLUMNS ( x1, "total Registration", [Registered hours] + [Sub assignment registration]),
[Sub assignment registration] <> BLANK ()
)
