Power Bi | Analysis Services | Working with Mixed Model

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am working with an Analysis Services Model which works on Live Connection.

With the December Power Bi Update we can add local tables also and make the model mixed.

So in my mixed model, i want to create a measure to substract 2 columns(one from live connection and one from local).

Live Connection Table

Layer	Limit	Deductible
5xs5	5000000	5000000
10x10	10000000	10000000

Local Table

Claim	Incurred
1	5494849
2	2025357
3	74282

I want a measure IncurredAboveDeductible, which will substract Incurred from Deductible

Claim	Incurred	Layer	Deductible	IncurredAboveDeductible
1	5494849	5x5	5000000	494849
1	5494849	10x10	10000000	0

Kindly help if possible.

Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous 

You may try make change to live connection mode for Analysis Services to change mode to DirectQuery.

Blog: Using DirectQuery for Power BI datasets and Azure Analysis Services (preview)

Then you can use datasource from live connection and local at the same time.

Try to build a new calculated table.

Table = ADDCOLUMNS(GENERATE('Local Table','Live Connection'),"IncurredAboveDeductible",IF([Incurred]-[Deductible]<0,0,[Incurred]-[Deductible]))

Result is as below.

Hi @Anonymous 

Could you tell me if your problem has been solved? If it is, kindly Accept it as the solution. More people will benefit from it. Or you are still confused about it, please provide me with more details about your table and your problem or share me with your pbix file from your Onedrive for Business.

Best Regards,

Please provide more context. Are you trying to cross join the tables (which doesn't require common columns) ?

Thank you, Cross Join worked! I could compute the measure required!

This is my formula>>>

IncurredAboveLayerDeductible = CALCULATE (

SUMX (

FILTER (

CROSSJOIN (

DimLayer,

SUMMARIZE (

FactClaims,

FactClaims[Inflated Incurred],

FactClaims[Client Claim Reference],

FactClaims[Client LOB]

)

),

FactClaims[Inflated Incurred] > DimLayer[Deductible]

),

FactClaims[Inflated Incurred] - DimLayer[Deductible]

)

)

What have you tried so far?  How did you connect the two data models?

Hello,

I have connected to the live connection model. And then added a local table with a SQL Query from Azure Analysis Services.

Just tried creating relationship between my local table and one table from Live Model. Could only create Many-Many and not Many-One like i wanted.

Could not create a relationship between the tables i have posted in my question as there are no matching columns.
