Hi, I have a measure e.g. measuresTable[Pool_Total] which calculates sales for a country. the result is something like 1743.49
here's measure:
Pool_Total =
CALCULATE (
SUMX (
FILTER(
salesTable,
salesTable[Country] = "US"
),
salesTable[AmountItem]
)
* .01
)
I also have a measure in a different visual where I assign a percentage e.g. myTable[Pct]
here's the measure:
Pct = DIVIDE(SUM(myTable[rank]), 100)
An example value for this is: 0.02
I'm trying to sum the results of the two measures and display in a column e.g. shareValue.
here's the column:
shareValue = myTable[Pool_Total] * [Pct]
the result is 2.00 unlike what I expect e.g. 1743.49 * 0.02 = 34.87
Can somepone point me to a possible fix, I think I misunderstand the complexity involved in the calculation.
thank you !
Multiplication should ideally be sum(A*B)
From multiple tables, it needs a row context, preferably a common dimension
sum(summarize(Dimension,Dimension[Name],"_1",[Pool_Total],"_2", [Pct]),[_1]*[_2])
Refer: the importance of row context : https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Decoding-Direct-Query-in-Power-BI-Part-2-Date-Differ...

Hi,
Share the link from where i can download your PBI file and clearly show the problem there.
Hi, thanks for response. I was able to get a demo working, I will provide it here for benefit of community. thanks again!
Is there a relationship between myTable and salesTable ?
the two measures may be executing in a different context
it looks like Pool_total is operating in a row that has an item defined... are there different items that all have different totals ?
without knowing how salesTable relates to myTable it's hard to say much
could you post and past in some sample data for both tables ?
Help when you know. Ask when you don't!
