Why ALLSELECTED(ALLEXCEPT ( ClientType, ClientType[FiscalYear] )) doesnt work?

I am trying to build the measure:

 

CALCULATE([Revenue] ,

                      DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year),"5/31"),

                      ALLSELECTED(ALLEXCEPT ( ClientType, ClientType[FiscalYear] ))

            

)

 

Unfortunately ALLSELECTED is not allowed nested with an ALLEXCEPT.

 

  • I need the ALLSELECTED, so I can ignore the filter in the current query.

 

  • I need the ALLEXCEPT, because I need to ignore a filter from outside on another column, but I do want to preserve the outside filter on FiscalYear!

 

How can I achieve this?

Hi @ovonel 

 

It seems ALLEXCEPT is enough. It can remove filters except for the specified column filters. How about using below code?

CALCULATE (
    [Revenue],
    ALLEXCEPT ( ClientType, ClientType[FiscalYear] ),
    DATESYTD ( DATEADD ( 'Date'[Date], -1, YEAR ), "5/31" )
)

Based on your description

=
CALCULATE(
    [Revenue],
    DATESYTD( DATEADD( 'Date'[Date], -1, YEAR ), "5/31" ),
    ALLSELECTED( ClientType ),
    VALUES( ClientType[FiscalYear] )
)

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!
