  • In this video we evaluate row context in DAX using Power BI. By itself row context is a very simple concept, so simple, we don't even think about it. But having a firm understanding of row context will help us to grow our DAX skills and understand more complex topics!

    Hi!
    Fresh new in Power BI, coming from Apsheet.
    I have a table where one record's status depends of another record's status.
    Wrong data model but nothing I ca do about it (client's)
    Sales and deliveries in the same table
    One delivery per sale
    One product per sale
    Once delivery is complete, Sale will be complete.
    Dims:
    Transaction date
    Delivery place
    Product
    For each Sale I am looking to find another record (delivery) with the same TDate, DPlace and Product and return it's status.
    What formula works similar to
    Select(Table[Column], AND(conditions))?
    Thank you!

    What should I do if I need not the date of the last order, but its ID? I still need to determine, which order was the last, but what I want in the calculated column is not its date, but its ID. I'm stuck.

    Sir, I am having the data of sales amount having the column State and District. I have created a measure for total sales. and created 2 Slicer i.e. State and District and I have sync slicer for all the pages of the report. I have created a table with column State and Sale. If I don't selected any slicer from state then default value should be State Column and Sale Column and If I select any state the respective district of the state should come i.e. District column in place of State Column and Sale column.
    Please advise sir, how it can be done.

    Regarding starting at @11:36. ChatGPT is my personal IT tutor. According to Chat, the RELATED function should only be used on the one side of a relationship and never on the many side. Quote:
    "The information provided by the UA-cam instructor is not accurate.
    The DAX RELATED function is specifically designed to be used on the "one" side of a one-to-many relationship. It allows you to retrieve values from the "many" side based on a matching key.
    If you are on the "many" side of a relationship and the relationship is broken due to a calculated column, using the RELATED function will not fix the issue. In fact, using RELATED in such a scenario may lead to incorrect or unexpected results.
    To address issues with broken relationships caused by calculated columns on the "many" side, you would typically need to review and modify the calculated column or consider alternative approaches such as using measures or calculated tables.
    Remember, the RELATED function is used to navigate from the "one" side to the "many" side of a relationship. If the relationship is broken, the RELATED function will not resolve the issue."
    The following is the question that I asked ChatGPT:
    A UA-cam instructor just said that if I am on the many side of a relationship, and the relationship is broken due to the side affect of a Calculated Column, then I can use the RELATED DAX function to fix it. Is this correct? I was told that RELATED should only be used on the "one" side of a one-to-many relationship. The example the UA-camr used is: Product Name = RELATED(‘Product’[English Product Name])

      Hello and thanks for commenting on our video. I have reviewed the video and it is 100% correct and accurate. If you are in the table, on the one side of the relationship, for example a dimension table, related WILL NOT work to return information from the many side of the relationship. Related function only returns a single value and therefore will only work if you are on the many side of the relationship trying to return a single value from the one side. The code examples in the video back up the context provided.
      Similarly, relatedtable returns a table and therefore, if i'm in a dimension table and want to return a set of related rows from the many side of a relationship, I would use related table, since it can and will return a table expression.

      @@PragmaticWorks Awesome! Thanks for the clarification. So it seems it doesn't matter which side of the relationship you are on if you are using relatedtable since it returns a table, is this correct?

    • @PragmaticWorks
      @PragmaticWorks  11 місяців тому +1

      ​@@statesman6379 Technically Yes, you can use RELATEDTABLE on either side... but relatedtable is more complex to work with because now you have a table expression and you need to perform an operation on that table to return a scalar value. In contrast, the related function will return a scalar value by default and will not require further manipulation and therefore if you are returning a single value from the one side of the relationship RELATED would be ideal.
      In the video, I probably use a sumx or equivalent type function on top of relatedtable to return a scalar value.

    "Row context exist therefore relation is disabled" = no idea why and what does it mean? I see no logic behind this. (this is beginner question:) I don't think the row context is explained here.
