Search Expression

[Anonymous]

Hi All ,

I have table with 3 dimensions:

Month

Client

Country

And 2 measures:

Sales

Number of products

Let's say i have 100 rows in this table.

Each row contains specific match and the numbers are different.

Now i have chosen  the current month.

I would like to use the search expression in the Country column to filter sales above 200,000$.

When i use =sum(Sales)>200,000 it shows the total per country meaning sum of all combinations that above 200,000$ but it is not what i would like to get.

How can i use the search expression the get all combinations in the table using the existing dimensions to get sales>200,000$.

For example :

Client a          FR        203,456$

Client b          DE        567,999$

Client c          US        900,233$

And not :

Client a          FR        203,456$

Client b          DE        567,999$

Client c          US        900,233$

Client d          FR        115,745$

Client d should not be in the selection.

Best,

Tal

Hi Tal,

You can use set analysis:

Sum({<Sales = {">= 200000"}>}Sales)

Hi Carlos ,

Thanks for your reply:)

It works well with one dimension but when i have 2 dimensions and more it still summarized the total and not the specific row .

Hope it is clear enough.

Do you have any suggestions?

Best,

Tal

Try :

sum({<Client={"=sum(Sales)>=200000"}>}YourMeasure)

or (think it's more intelligent to do as follow)

sum({<Client={"=sum({1}Sales)>=200000"}>}YourMeasure)

Thanks Omar!

I want to cover all options, means that if i'm not filtering month the following can happen:

Client a          FR        203,456$    for Jan

Client a          FR        137,999$    for Feb

Client c          US        900,233$

and then when i use your expression it is still not filtering Feb but summarize and the 2 rows for FR appears.

Best,

Omri

maybe:

Sum({<measure={">=200000"}>}measure)

Hello bi_analysts_2‌you need to put your expression on column measure sales as follow :

sum({<sales={">200000"}>}sales)

i tried it with sample data and it works when i choose a specific month and country also

Can you share the expression you are using and the kind of chart you are applying it to?

I tried the expression and it works fine regardless of the filters you are applying.  If you want to include 200,000 and greater  use:

Sum({<Sales = {">= 200000"}>}Sales)

If you want just greater than 200,000 use:

Sum({<Sales = {"> 200000"}>}Sales)

If you share the expression you are using and the chart it is been applied to it would be easier to troubleshoot.
