Hi All,
Apologies if this is solved elsewhere.
I have 2 data sets related by date. The first data set contains an Actual amount, the second data set contains a forecast amount.
What I need to do is create a calculated column that ignores the Forecast value if an Actual value is present, but when an Actual value is not present displays the Forecast value. I have done this with the following measure:
Measure = if(ISblank(Sum('Actual'[Act])),Sum(Forecast[Forecast]),sum(Actual[Act]))The issue is that the measure column fails to Sum correctly.
The highlighted value should read the same as the Forecast column, but it appears only the first 3 values are being summed?
is anyone able to assist in highlighting what I need to do to have this measure column calculate correctly.
Cheers
Brad
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi All,
A little more searching and I found a solution.
Thanks @Greg_Deckler.

the solution I used:
Measure1 =
VAR __table = SUMMARIZE('Date',[Date],"__value",[Measure])
RETURN
IF(HASONEVALUE('Date'[Date]),[Measure],SUMX(__table,[__value]))
