create a table based on a query, keeping filters on page

[danb27]

Say I have Query1, which looks like this:

date, origin, type, cnt 
5/1/2019, A, A, 6
4/29/2019, B, A, 6
4/29/2019, C, B, 3

And I have three filters on the report where users can define a date range, what origins, and types to consider.

Now I need to create a second table (DailyFiltered) that looks like this when no filters are applied:

date, filteredCnt
5/1/2019, 6
4/29/2019, 9

While considering what the user defines in the report filters. For example, if the user were to select only type A, then Daily Filtered would instead look like this:

date, filteredCnt
5/1/2019, 6
4/29/2019, 6

Currently, I have:

Daily Filtered = summarize(keepfilters(Query1), Query1[date], 
    "filteredCnt", sum(Query1[cnt]))

And I have Query1 and Daily Filtered joined on date, many to one, cross filter direction = Both.

The second table is only being filtered by the date filter for Query1. Not sure where I went wrong.

Hi,

Just drag Date to your visual and then use this measure

=SUM(Data[Cnt])

Hope this helps.

So then follow up question: if I wanted to get the 90th percentile of that measure, how would I do that?

With something like the following using the Percentilex.inc function:

90th Percentile = PERCENTILEX.INC( Values( Query1[date] ), CALCULATE(SUM(Query1[cnt])), 0.9 )

The approach of creating a new calculated table will not work. Calculated tables are evaluated when the data is refreshed, they are not re-calculated any time a filter is changed.

But you don't need a separate table for this, you could just create a measure to do the daily totals.

eg.

Daily Cnt = CALCULATE( SUM( Query1[Cnt] ), ALL( Query1 ), VALUES( Query1[date] ) )

When I try to plot this in a histogram it doesn't work. I am hoping to have a histogram where the X axis is ranges of the sum of all counts and the y axis is the number of dates that fall into each range. Thank you for all the help so far

That's a completely new requirement. You need to generate a column for the "ranges of sums" to put on the x-axis and create a new measure that counts the dates. I answered a similar question a few weeks ago here https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Double-grouping/td-p/672757 you should be able to use the same technique here.
